DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND SIMULATION OF MAIZE COBS FLUIDIZED BED COMBUSTOR

Abstract:

This study adopts the theory of fluidisation to design a combustor suitable for use in the rural communities of Nigeria. The Combustor, which will use sand particles as bed material, will burn maize cobs supplied at 5kg/h to generate heat energy for thermal applications including steam generation. Like most…
