Spontaneous combustion of stockpiled coal occurs because of reaction between atmospheric gases and coal, and causes pollution, as well as the potential loss of all or part of the stockpile. The stockpile may be viewed as a chemical reactor, and chemical engineering methods may be used to analyse and
The effect of coal particle agglomeration during pulverized coal combustion is studied using a plug-flow model of a practical coal combustor. The model incorporates turbulent agglomeration, in addition to the combustion equations, to explore certain combustor and coal parameters that may be used for
