dc.description.abstractPressurized oxy-fuel fluidized bed (POFB) combustion is regarded as a promising technology for carbon capture from coal-fired power plants. High pressure and temperature conditions have important impacts on the flow characteristic of fluidized bed, and understanding them will help to optimize the design and operation of the POFB boiler. In this work, experiments were carried out in two pressurized fluidized bed (PFB) devices (a hot PFB and a “visual PFB”) both operated under high temperature (20-800 °C) and high pressure conditions (0.1-1.0 MPa). Four parameters including the minimum fluidization velocity (umf), the minimum bubbling velocity (umb), bubble diameter (Db) and bubble frequency (f) were examined in this study. Results showed that the umf decreases with rising pressure and temperature. Based on our results a formula was fitted for calculating the minimum fluidization velocity in PFB, with a relative error less than 15%. With the increase of fluidization number (w), the bubble size and tail vortex increased gradually, the bubbles tended to merge, and the shape of bubbles became more irregular. The Db decreases with the increase of temperature and pressure at the same w. The f increases with increased w, while it decreased with the increase of temperature and pressure.en_UK
