Experimental Investigation on Oxy-Hydrogen Gas Flame Injecting Coal Powder Gasification and Combustion.

Hydrogen energy is an important carrier for energy terminals to achieve green and low-carbon transformation. Hydrogen, as a carbon-free fuel, has great research and development value in the field of thermal power generation. This article proposes a solution for the stable combustion of coal powder using Oxy-hydrogen Gas ignition technology. An Oxy-hydrogen Gas flame injection coal powder combustion testing device was constructed to experimentally study the temperature distribution in the combustion chamber under Oxy-hydrogen Gas ignition technology, with primary air coal powder concentrations of 0.27, 0.32, and 0.36 (kg coal powder/kg air), as well as the concentration changes of volatile CO emissions during the ignition of coal powder using both Oxy-hydrogen Gas and CH₄ flames. The sensitivity of the NO generation during coal gasification combustion under the Oxy-hydrogen Gas ignition was simulated and analyzed. The results show that at a coal powder concentration of 0.32 (kg coal/kg air) and an Oxy-hydrogen Gas flow rate of 2.1 L/min, the combustion effect of coal powder is the best, and the highest combustion chamber temperature can reach 1156 K; when the concentration of coal powder varies within a range from 0.32 to 0.27, the combustion chamber temperature can be maintained at around 850K, achieving stable combustion conditions for coal powder. The only product generated by the Oxy-hydrogen Gas combustion is high-temperature water vapor, which helps the rapid gasification of coal powder and releases a large amount of volatile CO, which is beneficial for the ignition and stable combustion of coal powder.
