Mixed-firing of a bituminous and an anthracite coal carried out in a batch fluidized bed combustor(0.109 m-I.D., 0.9 m-height). Effect of particle size an mixing fraction of anthracite and bituminous coal combustion characteristics were studied. The temperature profiles and pressure fluctuation properties were measured to interpret the combustion characteristics in a batch fluidized bed combustor. The used domestic anthracite coal has heating value of 2010 kcal/kg and the imported high-calorific bituminous coal has heating value of 6520 kcal/kg. The combustion characteristics in a batch fluidized bed combustor could be interpreted by using pressure fluctuation properties and temperature increasing rates. It was found that the optimum anthracite mixing percentage could be predicted analyzing the combustion rate and fluidization characteristics, The optimum mixing fraction was about 30 %. The different burning region of fluidized bed combustor was measured by temperature increasing rates.

To apply to novel two-interconnected fluidized beds system for selective solid circulation, a solid separator and a solid circulation system were developed. The solid separation rate increased as the gas velocity through the solid injection nozzle, solid height, and diameter of solid injection nozzle increased. However, the effect of the fluidization velocity was negligible. Coarse($212{\sim}300{\mu}m$) and fine($63{\sim}106{\mu}m$) particles were separated using the solid separator and the solid separation rate was ranged from 66 to 453 g/min. The solid circulation rate increased as the gas velocity through the solid injection nozzle, solid height, and the number of solid intake holes increased. However, the effect of the fluidization velocity was negligible. Fine particle was circulated using the solid circulation system and the solid circulation rate was ranged from 65 to 390 g/min. We also proposed two interconnenced fluidized beds system for selective solid circulation equipped with the developed solid separator and the solid circulation system. Long-term operation of continuous solid circulation up to 20 hours has been performed to check feasibility of stable operation. The pressure drop profiles in two beds and the solid separation rate were maintained steadily, and therefore, we could conclude that solid circulation was smooth and stable.

여과포 표면상에 도달하는 입자의 농토를 낮추거나 균일하게 유지시킬 경우, 부착된 입자층 두께의 성장으로 인한 압력손실의 증가율을 줄일 수 있고 이로 인하여 탈진 주기 또한 감소시킬 수 있다. 탈진조작의 저감으로 인하여 여과포의 수명 증대로 여과포의 교체 시기를 연장시킬 수 있으므로 여과포 집진장치의 운전 및 유지 보수비의 저감을 이룰 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 집진용기의 중간부분에 위치한 접선 유입관을 통하여 오염입자를 함유한 기체유동을 유입시킨 후, 원심력과 난류확산에 의하여 집진용기 내벽과 내통(inner tube) 벽면에 부착된 입자는 중력에 의하여 용기 바닥으로 모인 후 바닥면에 설치된 스크래퍼(scraper)를 통하여 분리 처리될 수 있는 새로운 형상의 집진장치를 개발하고자 하였다.

In this study, wall to bed heat transfer and hydrodynamic characteristics in a conical fluidized bed combustor was investigated using computational fluid dynamics method. A two-fluid Eulerian-Eulerian model was used with applying the kinetic theory for granular flow(KTGF). The effects of the two drag models, Gidaspow and the Syamlal-O'Brien model, different inlet velocities($1.4U_{mf}{\sim}4U_{mf}$) and different particle sizes on the hydrodynamics and heat transfer were studied. The results showed that the hydrodynamic characteristics such as bed expansion ratio and pressure drop were not affected significantly by the drag models. But the heat transfer coefficient was different for the two drag models, especially at lower gas inlet velocities and small particle sizes.

To develop a chemical-looping combustion technology, conceptual design of 50 kW thermal chemical-looping combustor, which is composed of two interconnected pressurized circulating fluidized beds, was performed by means of mass and energy balance calculations. A riser type fast fluidized bed was selected as an oxidizer and a bubbling fluidized bed was selected as a reducer by mass balance for the chemical-looping combustor. Calculated values of bed mass, solid circulation flux, and reactor dimension by mass and energy balance calculations were suitable for construction and operation of chemical-looping combustor. It is concluded from the comparison of the design results and operating values of commercial circulating fluidized bed that the process outline is realistic. Moreover, the previous results support that oxygen carrier particle, NiO/bentonite, fulfills the conversion rates needed for the proposed design. The effects of system capacity, metal oxide content in a oxygen carrier particle, amount of steam input, gas velocity, and solid depth on design values were investigated and the changes in the system performance can be estimated by proposed design tool.

In order to meet more severe environmental regulations, oxy-fuel circulating fluidized bed(CFB) boilers or ultra supercritical CFB boilers, which are a kind of process in that solid particles moves similar to fluid, have been developed in the world. In CFB power generation processes, the method to reduce or remove sulfur dioxide is in-situ desulfurization reaction via limestone directly injected into CFB boilers. However, the desulfurization efficiencies have continuously changed because limestones injected into CFB boilers are affected by various operation conditions (Bed temperature, pressure, solid circulating rate, solid holdup, residence time, and so on). In this study, a prediction method with physical and chemical properties of limestone and operation conditions of CFB boiler for in-situ desulfurization reaction in CFB boilers has developed by integrating desulfurization kinetic equations and hydrodynamics equations for CFB previously published. In particular, the prediction equation for in-situ desulfurization was modified by using experimental results from desulfurization reactions of various domestic limestones.

바닥에서 생성되는 난류는 순간적으로 강한 모멘텀을 바닥에 전달함과 동시에 바닥에 있는 입자를 움직이게 한다. 경계층 내 난류 운동에 대한 분석은 다양한 유사 이송 문제를 이해하기 위해 필수적이며 이에 따라 많은 선행 연구들은 실험실 실험을 통해 해당 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서는 선행 연구에서 사용하지 못했던 진보된 실험 방법을 활용하여 바닥 경계층 내의 난류 운동에 대해 확인하고 해당 운동에 의해 관성 입자의 움직임이 어떻게 발생하는지에 대하여 물리적으로 설명하고자 한다. 다양한 흐름 조건에서 3가지의 입경 크기를 가지는 모래 입자를 가지고 실험을 수행하였으며, 실험 조건별 고해상도 유속장 및 관성 입자의 움직임은 3차원 입자 영상 유속계 (Particle Image Velocimetry; 이하 PIV)와 입자 추적 유속계 (Particle Tracking Velocimetry; 이하 PTV)를 동시에 적용하여 파악하였다. 취득된 3차원 유속장과 입자 궤적을 기반으로 실험 조건별 흐름 및 입자 거동 특성에 대해 분석하였으며, 관성 입자의 움직임을 발생시키는 3차원 난류 운동은 측정된 유속장에서 산정한 Q-criterion 값을 기반으로 도식화하였다. 측정값 내에는 난류 운동에 대한 정보와 더불어 잡음이 포함되어 있으므로 이를 제거하고자 적합 직교 분해 (Proper Orthogonal Decomposition; 이하 POD) 방법을 적용하였다. 그리고 POD로 추출한 유속장을 통해 바닥면 부근에 존재하는 헤어핀 와류 운동 혹은 와류 묶음과 같은 난류 고유 구조를 파악하였다. 해당 와류 운동들의 3차원 난류 특성을 확인하고자 비등방성 불변 지도(anisotropy invariant map)를 활용하였으며 경계층 내부에서 난류의 형태가 흐름 방향으로 늘어진 럭비공 형태임을 확인하였다. 마지막으로, 입자의 움직임을 발생시키는 난류 이벤트를 결정하고자 사방구 분석 (Quadrant analysis) 기법을 적용하였으며 흐름 조건별로 입자를 움직이게 하는 난류 이벤트는 달라짐을 확인하였다.

In this experimental study, for obtaining the data to be used in the increased recover rate of waste heat from the recirculated sand, the furan foundry sand were used as the fluidized particle in the fluidized bed in which the smooth, spiral and finned tubes($Do={\varphi}12.7$) were horizontally installed and used as the heat-transfer tubes. The heat transfer experiments were performed in the conditions of water Reynolds number of inside tubes in the range of 4,000 to 18,000 and particle Reynolds number of outside tube in the range of 0.8 to 7.5. The heat-transfer coefficients(ho) increase as the higher inside temperature of the fluidized bed and the maximum heat-transfer coefficients can be obtained in the range of 3.5 to 5.5 of particle Reynolds number in the all tubes. The maximum Nu numbers of smooth, spiral and finned tubes are figured as about 1:1.5:3 in order even if the ratios show little different as the temperatures of bed.

The purpose of this study was to improve the stability and the processing property of vitamin C. Vitamin C was coated according to particle size(80-100 mesh, 100-140 mesh) and mixing ratio(1:1.6, 1:2.5, 1:3(w/w)) with coating solution(8% Zein-DP, 6% HPMC-FCC), and then the quality characteristics of fluidized bed micro coated vitamin C were investigated. The coating efficiency and the thickness of coating film were higher in $80{\sim}100$ mesh particle than in $100{\sim}140$ mesh particles, and coating efficiency was decreased as the coating material was increased. The distribution range of particle was more narrow in mixing ratio of 1:3(w/w) than in the other. DPPH radical scavenging activity was not affected by the particle size and the mixing ratio. There was no difference between the coating materials in terms of the quality characteristics. The optimum coating condition for fluidized bed micro-coating of vitamin C powder was selected as the particle size of $80{\sim}100$ mesh and the mixing ratio with coating solution of 1:3(w/w).
