The results show that: with the increase of oxygen concentration, the ignition temperature of four coals greatly decreases and the low volatile coals decrease faster; with the increase of oxygen concentration, the ignition mode of pulverized coal has an obviously transformation from homogeneous ignition to heterogeneous ignition, and the corresponding oxygen concentrations are about 40% and 50%-60% respectively for bituminous coal and lignite, and both about 30% for lean coal and anthracite; with the increase of oxygen concentration, the optimal pulverized coal concentrations of bituminous coal and lignite increase firstly and then decrease, but for lean coal and anthracite, the optimal pulverized coal concentrations decrease slowly with the increase of oxygen concentration.展开更多

The surface temperature (Ts) and the center temperature (Tc) of the coal particles were obtained from the images taken by an infrared camera and thermocouples respectively. The ignition processes were recorded by a high-speed camera at different XO_(2) values and furnace temperatures Tw. Compared with literature experimental data obtained at a high XO_(2) value, the ignition delay time τi decreases more rapidly as XO_(2) increases at the low XO_(2) region. The responses of Ts and Tc to the variation of XO_(2) are different: Ts decreases while Tc remains nearly constant with increasing XO_(2) at a low XO_(2) value. In addition, τi is less sensitive to Tw while the ignition temperature Ti is more sensitive to Tw at a low XO_(2) value than in air. Observations of the position of flame front evolution illustrate that the ignition of a coal particle may change from a homogeneous mode to a heterogeneous or combined ignition mode as XO_(2) decreases. At a low XO_(2) value, buoyancy plays a more significant role in sweeping away the released volatiles during the ignition process.展开更多
