Comprehensive mathematical model for biomass combustion
(2014) In Combustion Science and Technology 186(4-5). p.574-593- Abstract
- This article reports on an investigation of a comprehensive mathematical model for biomass combustion within the one-dimensional model framework. The model takes into account different thermochemical processes, e.g., moisture evaporation, pyrolysis, heterogeneous char reactions, intra-particle heat and mass transfer, and changes in thermo-physical properties. Different approaches to model the various processes involved in the thermochemical conversion of biomass are discussed, and a sensitivity study is carried out to investigate the performance of sub-models for the drying process. The comprehensive model is used to investigate the effect of moisture diffusion and vapor condensation inside the particle pores. The model is evaluated under... (More)
