A mathematical model is developed that represents a first approximation of the dynamics of the coal char combustion. The model determines a range of particle sizes and gas temperatures where oscillation can occur and propagating spherical waves surround the particle. It is also possible to compute t

A rapid quantitative estimation of carbon dioxide by infrared spectrophotometry provided a rapid and reliable technique for a semi-quantitative comparison of the reactivity of carbon samples to oxidative gases, since the previously demonstrated inverse relation between ease of wet oxidation of carbo
The reactivities of eight Canadian coal-derived chars of four different ranks were measured thermogravimetrically at 500Β°C. It has been found that char reactivity decreases with increase in the carbon content (or rank) of the parent coal. Chars containing more calcium and magnesium oxides have highe
Equipment for measuring the reactivity of chars from highly reactive coals, based on recent Norwegian developments, has been assembled. Measuring techniques are described, and the results of measurement with a range of New Zealand coals are presented. The measured reactivities are compared with resu
We have investigated the heat of pyrolysis and hydrogenation of coal as well as the gasification rate of char in H? at Pennsylvania State University during 1974-76, by using a number of coals with different ranks. The results on the effect of coal rank are briefly summarized in this paper, and the p
