Watkinson[1°]提出平水蒸氣、CO2和H2等繼續發(fā)生氣化反應,同時(shí)氣相衡模型,通過(guò)質(zhì)量和能量平衡及反應平衡方程式關(guān)中還有水煤氣變換反應和甲烷裂解反應等.對氣流聯(lián),可以得到產(chǎn)品煤氣組成、產(chǎn)率和最佳適宜溫度，床氣化,一般將變換反應和甲烷化反應視為平衡反并對9種氣化爐型的工業(yè)化和半工業(yè)化氣化數據進(jìn)行了比較.對產(chǎn)品煤氣中的CO和H2含量誤差在土從如上分析可以認為在對氣流床模擬時(shí),考慮0.1%之內,H2S和COS濃度可以準確的預測，但氣化爐中氣固相的組成分別為氣相:O,H2O,CO,，CO2預測值的準確性要差一些.結果還表明該模型CO, H2,CH,N2(或NHs)，H2S(+ COS), Tar;固對氣流床氣化爐模擬效果最好,流化床次之，而固定相:C,H,O,N, s, Ash, Moisture.另外考慮氣固相床由于一些不確定因素如揮發(fā)分含量組成等的存溫度Tg, T..數學(xué)模擬的目的就是求出氣化爐內每在,模擬誤差較大.Ruprecht等DI建立了平衡模型,并用于評價(jià)試驗數據分析.平衡模型可用于對出口-質(zhì)點(diǎn)處的上述參數的值.組成及溫度進(jìn)行簡(jiǎn)單預測.由于其假定的條件較理1.2 氣化反應動(dòng)力學(xué)想，如假定所有反應都達到平衡,在實(shí)際過(guò)程是不可煤粉熱解反應速度很快,主要根據經(jīng)驗式對熱能的，因此其用途受到-定限制,對過(guò)程控制及氣化解速度和產(chǎn)物進(jìn)行估算,大致有Wen等[1+4給出的爐設計參考價(jià)值較少.幾種表達形式.氣固非均相反應,由于氣化爐內反應2.2考慮氣化過(guò)程動(dòng)力學(xué)的模型溫度很高，最高溫度可達2000 C以上,所以半焦與為了更準確的用數學(xué)模型對氣化及燃燒過(guò)程進(jìn)O2,H2O,COz的反應速度由氣膜擴散及灰層擴散控行模擬，需考慮氣化過(guò)程三傳一反及動(dòng)力學(xué)行為.許制,而半焦與H2的反應較慢,它由化學(xué)反應控制.多研究者對此進(jìn)行了研究,建立了一維、二維及多維從非均相反應動(dòng)力學(xué)模型看,分為未反應核收縮模模型. Field等對1967年以前的工作進(jìn)行了歸納,模型及灰層剝離模型,文獻[5]認為灰層在反應過(guò)程中型屬活塞流. Ubhayakar等$忽略了表面反應,但考剝離,因此反應受氣膜擴散和化學(xué)反應動(dòng)力學(xué)控制;慮了軸向混合、揮發(fā)分的氣相反應及熱解反應.而文獻[1,6]認為,由于氣流床氣化爐中煤粉顆粒所Smith等[8,123 先后建立了一維及二維煤粉氣流床燃占體積很小(<1%),且停留時(shí)間只有2 s~3 s,因燒及氣化模型,模型中考慮了煤粉顆粒大小分布對此煤粉顆粒碰撞幾率較小，在煤粉顆粒表面因反應反應速度的影響. Wen等[給出一維模型來(lái)描述形成的灰層可認為仍保留而不剝離,所以反應速度Texaco氣化爐中的混合情況,每-微元被處理成氣可由未反應核收縮模型得到反應速度.其它學(xué)者也相是完全混合,固相以活塞流通過(guò)整個(gè)反應器,固相研究了氣化反應動(dòng)力學(xué)問(wèn)題,基本一致的觀(guān)點(diǎn)是要粒子的速度用Stokes方程近似描述.模擬了中試裝同時(shí)考慮化學(xué)反應控制及擴散控制.使用比較多的置使用煤及加氫殘渣氣化情況,操作參數的變化對如對加氫氣化過(guò)程模擬時(shí),采用了Johnosn]的加煤氣組成的影響等. Govind等明對上述模型進(jìn)行了氫熱解動(dòng)力學(xué)模型;Wen等[1]3提出的未反應核收縮修正,加入了動(dòng)量平衡.考查了煤氣組成與進(jìn)料速模型也使用較多，Smith等0]也采用了獨特的動(dòng)力度、氧/煤比及汽/煤比的關(guān)系. Sprouse等13.14] 模擬學(xué)表達式.加氫氣化反應,前者使用了經(jīng)驗關(guān)聯(lián)式,但不適合次煙煤,后者盡管較通用和完善,但因其復雜性導致其2氣流床氣化數學(xué)模型綜述應用困難.Brown等0研究了4種煤沿氣化爐的軸向及徑向氣相組成分布,討論了氧碳比及蒸汽量等對模擬結果的影響. Vamvukal[5]建立了一維穩態(tài)模2.1平 衡模型型,發(fā)現氣固相最大溫度位于氧氣耗盡處,考察了關(guān)第4期步學(xué)朋等煤炭氣化氣流床氣化爐的數學(xué)模擬數學(xué)模擬的攻關(guān)課題,取得了豐碩成果.現將最近的任何模型模擬的目的是能反映氣化爐內物料運研究成果及文獻[6,12]對以前的煤粉氣流床氣化及動(dòng)及化學(xué)反應情況,并獲得出口處煤氣組成及溫度、燃燒模擬情況的總結一并列于表1中.碳轉化率、氣化效率等參數.氣流床氣化爐數學(xué)模擬與實(shí)際(或實(shí)驗)結果的對比情況見(jiàn)表2,可見(jiàn)對幾.3模擬煤氣組成與實(shí)際(或實(shí)驗)結果種不同爐型煤氣中的主要組分,模擬誤差小，說(shuō)明模擬基本上是成功的.對比表1氣流床 氣化數學(xué)模擬匯總Table 1 Reviews of models for coal entrained-bed gasifiersAuther(s)ReferencesYearMain Contents/DescriptionMajor ResultsMehta1976Phenomenological model combination of plug flow Describes the outlet conditions for aand perfectly-stirred calculations, gas phase chemi- three -stage entrained flow gasifier.cal equilibrium. overall char gasification with Ar-rhenius- type rates.Sprouse* ,131979One- dimensional hydrogasification; free-stream e Extensive study of boundary layerquilibrium chemistry; one-step devolatilization and around the particles of Rockwell Inthydrogasification model.FHP gasifier, compared well with out-let measurements for coal gasifierFinsonet al1978Steady, one-dimensional model，with gaseous ki- Predictions compared with laboratorynetics; kinetics from data for coal pyrolysis; het- gasification measurements of axial tem-erogeneous oxidation; considered the char struc- perature and gas composition.ture and reactivity.Ubhayakar,￥,31977One-dimensional steady-state ;two-steple- Applied to gasification combustion andStickler &.

Based on relative documents, the mathematical modeling of coal entrained-bed gasifiers werereviewed. These include simple equilibrium models and kinetic models (one- dimensional or two/three- dimensional). The main contents-about hydromechanics, thermodynamics, chemical reac-tion kinetics, and mass balance, energy balance, momentum balance, of the models were givenout. The major results of models were also given. Finally. the comparison of computational re-sults from the models with experimental or operational results were given. It can be seen that theerrors of the main gas composition are very low.KEY WORDS coal gasification ,entrained-bed gasification , mathematical modeling(上接第6頁(yè))DEVELOPMENT OF COAL STRUCTURECheng Jun Zhou Anning and Li Jianwei(Department of Material Engineering, Xi' an Unirversity ofScience and Technology, 710054,Xi' an)ABSTRACT The coal aggregative structure is discussed, including the origin, structure andswelling behavior of several macerals.
