...Zexuan Zhang; Ting Wang A computational model is established to simulate the combustion and thermal-flow behavior inside a petcoke rotary calcining kiln. The results show that peak temperature is located at the tertiary air zone and a cold region that exists between the natural gas combustion zone...

...P. S. Ghoshdastidar; Ankit Agarwal The present work reports a computer simulation and optimization study of heat transfer in a rotary kiln used for drying and preheating wood chips with superheated steam at 1 bar. A rotary kiln employed for drying and preheating wet solids consists of a refractory...

...Lei Zhao; Ting Wang Petroleum coke is processed into calcined coke in a rotary kiln, where the temperature profiles of flue gas and coke bed are highly nonuniform due to different flow and combustion mechanisms. Motivated by saving energy costs, the effect of refractory brick’s thermal properties...
