Burning rates were doubled at various pressures, when solids loading (AP and 17% A1) were increased from 80 to 88% and the measured characteristic velocity values were increased by about 100m/sec. The pressure exponent (n) values were lower with 80-85% solids loading. The burning rates were increased by about 2-5% when comparing the data obtained by static firing with those obtained by the strand burner method.展开更多

In this work, the effect of high solid loading on pressure drop in a reverse-flow cyclone was experimentally studied. The particles used were sand and 2zAl203. Art extended range of inlet solid loadings (M), up to 30 kg of solids/kg of air was tested at different inlet air velocities (Vin=16~24 m/s), well beyond the solid loading range reported before. The experiments showed that, in the tested range of solid loadings, the cyclone pressure drop decreased dramatically with increasing solid loading when M〈7.5 kg/kg and then almost remained constant. A new semi-empirical model for predicting cyclone pressure drop was also developed. The calculated and experimental results showed good agreement for particle free flow and particle laden flow.展开更多
