Abstract: Combustion and deposition behavior of coal in the form of highly beneficiated coal-water mixtures (CWM) has been investigated. The solids content of the CWM fuels was typically 50 percent, with ...

Abstract: Chemical and physical transformations of coal ash during combustion and deposition in gas turbine environments have been studied. Extensive characterization of the coal-water mixture fuel and ...

Abstract: This paper presents preliminary results of a program to investigate the key technologies for burning coal-water slurries in gas turbines. Results are given for slurry atomization and combustion ...
