Abstract
To address the problem that there are many limestone particle decomposition reaction models and it is difficult to accurately select the appropriate one, this paper established two typical one-dimensional unsteady numerical calculation models for single-particle limestone decomposition, coupling the convective heat transfer, thermal conduction, and CO2 mass transfer processes. Two numerical calculation models were solved through the Matlab R2021a platform, and the internal temperature, CO2 concentration distribution, and decomposition reaction rate of the limestone particles during the period from the beginning of temperature rise to the end of decomposition were obtained. Compared with the experimental data, Model 1 has a better agreement with a relative error of less than 10%. The simulation results have shown that the average decomposition reaction rate is 20% higher than the average mass transfer rate. As the particle size increases from 20 mm to 80 mm, the time required for temperature rise in the initial stage changes from 6.6 min to 42.7 min. It is noted that the CO2 volume fraction increment increases by 0.42% with a particle size of 80 mm and a heating temperature of 1050 °C, indicating that the influence of the distribution of CO2 on the limestone decomposition may not be ignored.
