Process to create a collision between a stream of gas and particles and a target

摘要

A process to create a collision in controlled conditions between a stream of gas and particles and a target includes the generation of a stream of gas and particles, of given composition, in the form of a unidirectional beam, using a supersonic burner comprising a combustion chamber and a gas gun, the combustion chamber being fed with a set of fluids comprising a set of gases comprising an oxidizer, and a specific liquid fuel. The generation of a collision between the beam and the target includes the adjustment of the fuel flow, the flow of each gas and the adjustment of the distance between the burner and the target, so as to obtain at the impact point the desired values of the following parameters: (i) the gas temperature or the temperature of the target, and (ii) the gas speed.

1. A process to create a collision in controlled conditions between a stream of gas and particles and a target, characterized in that the collision is implemented according to desired values, defined at the impact point between the stream and the target, of the gas temperature or the temperature of the target and the gas speed, and the process comprises:
a. generating a stream of gas and particles, of given composition, in the form of a unidirectional beam, using a supersonic burner comprising a combustion chamber and a gas gun, the combustion chamber being fed with a set of fluids comprising a set of gases comprising an oxidizer, and a liquid fuel having a composition providing after combustion the given composition of gas and particles, the liquid fuel including, as precursors of particles, hetero-molecules either in oil soluble form or in water soluble, emulsified form, and, as precursors of gas, hetero-elements selected among S, P, and the halogens; b. generating a collision between the beam and the target; c. adjusting fuel flow, the flow of each gas, and the adjustment of the distance between the burner and the target, so as to obtain at the impact point the desired values of the following parameters: (i) the gas temperature or the temperature of the target, and (ii) the gas speed; and d. monitoring the temperature of the target at the impact point in the course of time in order to characterize the nature of the particle-target interaction, wherein a constant temperature during the test characterizes an absence of ash deposition, an increase in the temperature characterizes an ash deposition process, and an temperature evolution showing an increase interrupted with drops characterizes deposition of particles interrupted by cracking or scaling processes.
