Gravel Bed Combustor for Solid Fuel Fired Gas Turbine

Abstract: A fixed bed, downdraft combustor for solid fuels applicable to gas turbine cogeneration or combined cycles is described. The combustor has a refractory gravel bed, with fuel placed on top of the gravel and burning at the fuel-gravel interface. The gravel retains fuel particles in the combustion zone, preventing carryover of unburned char. Combustion temperature is held below the ash fusion temperature by using high excess air through the bed, thereby minimizing particulate ash agglomeration. Pre… Show more
