Pneumatic conveying system and circulating fluidized bed boiler

A pneumatic conveying system, characterized by comprising:

• a compressed air and coal powder mixing system, including an air compressor, a coal powder bin, a powder feeder, and an air-powder mixer, the powder feeder is located at the bottom of the coal powder bin, the air compressor and powder feeder are connected to an inlet of the air-powder mixer, the air compressor supplies compressed air to the mixer, the coal powder bin stores coal powder and feeds the coal powder to the mixer via the powder feeder, and the mixer blends the air and powder to output an air-powder mixture,
• the air compressor inlet is connected to a damper, the air compressor outlet is linked via pipes to a refrigerated dryer, an outlet of the refrigerated dryer connects to an air storage tank, an outlet of the air storage tank supplies compressed air to the air-powder mixer,
• a conveying system for the air-powder mixture, including a main conveying pipe and branch pipes,
• the mixer outlet connects to the main conveying pipe, the main conveying pipe branches via a distributor to multiple conveying pipes,
• the branch pipes include front-wall, rear-wall, and side-wall pipes, each comprising multiple secondary air pipes and conveying pipes, and each conveying pipe is equipped with a manual slide gate and a discharge valve,
• the conveying pipes are sleeve connected to secondary air pipes on front, rear, and side walls of a boiler, delivering the air-powder mixture into a furnace chamber,
• the front-wall pipe includes upper and/or lower secondary air pipes and a conveying pipe, with an outlet of the conveying pipe fitted with a variable-section coal nozzle, the rear-wall pipe includes upper and/or lower secondary air pipes and a conveying pipe, also with a variable-section nozzle,
• an outlet of the variable-section coal nozzle comprises two semicircles, wherein the diameter (D2) of each semicircle is 0.25-0.5 times the inlet circular diameter (D1) of the variable-section coal nozzle, an outlet velocity of the air-powder mixture from the variable-section coal nozzle ranges from 24-42 m/s, the side-wall pipe includes upper and/or lower secondary air pipes and a conveying pipe, with a tapered round nozzle at an outlet of the conveying pipe,
• the tapered round nozzle has a cone angle of 1-15° and an outlet area of 0.25-0.35 times the inlet area, achieving an outlet velocity of the air-powder mixture of 50-72 m/s.
