Abstract
A two-stage gasification pilot plant was designed and built as a
co-operative project between the Technical University of Denmark
and the company REKA.A dynamic, mathematical model of the
two-stage pilot plant was developed to serve as a tool for
optimising the process and the operating conditions of the
gasification plant.The model consists of modules corresponding to
the different elements in the plant. The modules are coupled
together through mass and heat conservation.Results from the model
are compared with experimental data obtained during steady and
unsteady operation of the pilot plant. A good agreement between
the numerical results and the experimental data is obtained.The
mathematical model prescribes that the plant reaches a new
steady-state condition fast, when changing the operating condition
from full load to partial load.
