Abstract:
The paper issues from the results of several experimental campaigns that have been performed monitoring the combustion quality on an industrial moving grate furnace, showing up the overall complexity of the regulation on a packed bed. One of most effective quantity about furnace regulation is fuel moisture level, on this purpose a simple and effective method to probe fuel moisture will be presented. This paper also explores the correlations between abnormal evaporation rates obtained with the presented moisture sensing method and abnormal pollutant emissions observed during experimental campaigns. These unexpected transients of operation marked out by abnormal pollutant emission and long recovery time are known as .bed illness. phenomena.
