Effect of bed particle size on the gas-particle hydrodynamics and wall erosion characteristics in a 550 MWe USC CFB boiler using CPFD simulation
To reduce wall erosion in 550 MWe ultra-supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler, the effect of bed particle size with gas-particle hydrodynamics characteristics is investigated here through Barracuda simulation. Most studies on erosion until now have dealt with pilot scale system, but the present study aims to provide valuable information on erosion at full scale in the CFB boiler.
