TOWER DISTRIBUTION IN A COAL BURNING POWER PLANT

摘要

A tower distributor receives a stream of working media including pulverized coal and a carrier gas in a coal burning power plant. The tower distributor includes a wall structure and one or more flow directing members including diverters, vane members, and/or protuberances. The wall structure defines a flow passageway for the stream of working media and includes an inlet and an outlet spaced from the inlet in an axial direction. Each flow directing member is provided to alter the flow of the working media through the tower distributor.
