Abstract
The temperature of coarse (6–8 mm) carbon particles burning in a fast fluidized bed was measured. The burning carbon particle was found to be 50–70°C hotter than the bed solids. The convective heat transfer coefficient on the particle was also measured in a separate experiment to help predict the temperature of the carbon particle using a mathematical model which considered both combustion kinetics and heat transfer on the particle. A good agreement between the predicted and measured values of temperature was found.Keywords
