Experiments were carried out in an electrically heated drop-tube at heating rates comparable to fullscale pulverized fuel combustion chambers. Values of the kinetic parameters, obtained by minimization of the difference between the experimental and modeled values of char burnout, have been derived and CFD simulations reproducing the experimental conditions of the drop tube furnace confirmed proper agreement between numerical and experimental char burnout.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Coal Char Kinetics of Oxidation and Gasification Reactions}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/105863/PDF/10-paper-Lewtak.pdf}, doi={10.1515/cpe-2017-0011}, keywords={kinetic parameters, char particle oxidation and gasification, oxy-fuel combustion}, }
