Discussion on Selection of Pulverizer and Moisture of Pulverized Coal for Lignite Boilers

摘要

In China,the abrasion index and the free moisture are regarded as the criteria for determining whether the medium-speed pulverizer or the fan pulverizer could be selected.Based on comprehensive studies on foreign methods for choosing the pulverizing system for lignite boilers,it is suggested that the particle size of coal,the drying time,the drying temperature and the humidity should be taken into account when measuringthe free moisture of lignite,and the total moisture could also be the principle for type selection of pulverizer for lignite boilers.Furthermore,the determination of pulverized-coal moisture has great influence on the running of pulverizing systems.The actual moisture of certain pulverized coals is compared with that calculated with different methods and a feasible method for determining the moisture of the pulverized coal is suggested.
