✦ Synopsis

Combustion of pulverized coal in CO2/O 2 as well as in air atmospheres is studied. Predictions using a onedimensional computer code were compared with actual experimental data from tests conducted by Battelle Columbus Laboratories. The comparison of predicted and measured data for all test cases show that the observed trends of distributions of temperature and of species concentrations are generally predictable. The study confirms that the combustion of pulverized coal can be completed in a CO2/O 2 atmosphere over a range of CO2-to-O2 mole ratios between 2.23 and 3.65.
