Pulverized solid injection system. Application to laboratory burners and pyrometric temperature measurements

Abstract

The design and setting up of a pulverized solid injection system for use in laboratory burners is presented. The original dual system consists of a screw feeder coupled to an acoustic sower. This laboratory device allows a good regularity and stability of the particle–gas mixture transported to the burner in a large scale of mass powder and gas vector rate flow. The thermal history of the particles has been followed by optical measurements. The quality of the particle cloud injected in the burner has been validated by the good agreement between experimental and modeling particle temperature.
