Abstract
The effects of particle swelling and shrinkage during devolatilization and char combustion on the flame characteristics are investigated by performing DNS of a lab-scale turbulent pulverized-coal straight-jet flame. The obtained characteristics are compared with those in the previous DNS (Hara et al., 2015), in which particle swelling and shrinkage are not taken into account. The results show that the changes in coal-particle diameter because of swelling and shrinkage during devolatilization and char combustion do not affect significantly the gas temperature distribution of the turbulent pulverized-coal straight-jet flame, although it explicitly affects the coal-particle diameter distribution in the flame.
