WhatsApp: +86 18838072829The issue of poor coal distribution is a common problem in vertical spindle mills, adversely effecting unit performance and efficiency. Any deviation from the specified airtofuel ratio in a coal pipe results in a fuel rich or fuel lean zone in the vicinity of a particular burner. In particular, CO emissions and unburned carbon in fly ash ...
WhatsApp: +86 18838072829PROBLEM: FUEL DISTRIBUTION Poor pipetopipe fuel balance is a common problem that can occur with any type of pulverizer system. It is not uncommon for fuel balance between coal pipes to vary by ±30% or more, despite having well balanced primary airflow to the fuel pipes. Fuel imbalance between burners results in a wide range of
