Abstract
- Pore behaviour during coal carbonisation has been tracked using rheometry.
- Plate gap and axial force accurately track pore nucleation, growth and coalescence.
- Open porosity increases when plate gap decreases and/or axial force decreases.
- Results reinforce hypothesis that pore coalescence reduces oven wall pressure.
