Pneumatic Dense-Phase Shipboard Coal and Ash Conveying Storage and Bunkering Systems for Coal-Fired Ships (Technical Application Manual)

摘要

The report provides descriptions and illustrations of the equipment used in pneumatic coal and ash conveying. Also, included are detailed descriptions of the differences between non-fluidizing dense-phase conveying and fluidizing type conveying systems. The discussions about onboard coal conveying systems describe the procedures for selecting dense-phase equipment sizes and capacities; selecting equipment and piping materials to obtain maximum life; designing bunkers, hoppers, and feed chutes; evaluating the quantities of coal conveying systems required between bunkers, hoppers, and the boilers; evaluating the quantities and sizes of dust filters for the coal storage structures; and sizing the air compressor/air storage tank system serving the ship's coal and ash conveying equipment.
