Notes:
Precalciner, in which endothermic raw meal calcination and exothermic fuel combustionproceed simultaneously, is a key equipment in dry process of cement production. To increase theprecalcination degree and reduce the energy consumption, more and more attentions have been paidon modeling gas-solid flow field in precalciners. However, most of them aimed at just qualitativestudies lacking in necessary further quantitative analysis of precalciner performance parameters. Inthis paper, combining qualitative studies and quantitative analysis, the gas-solid flow field wascarried out aiming at an actual precalciner under operational-based boundary conditions. In Eulercoordinate system the gas phase is expressed with k-ε model, in Lagrange coordinate system the solidphase is expressed with Discrete Phase Model(DPM), and the random effects of turbulence on theparticle dispersion is accounted for with Discrete Random Walk (DRW) model. The predicted gasvelocity field agrees well with the measured result, and the calculated raw meal concentrationdistribution is consistent with the actul condition. The results predicted that there is a simplespraying-liked flow field in the precalciner, with not only a non-uniform particle dispersion conditionbut also a low solid residence-time and residence-time ratio between solid and gas
