The proposed scaling rules have been verified on two cold models of CFB boilers operating in Tauron Wytwarzanie S.A. - El. Lagisza division (scale factor 1/20) and Fortum Power and Heat Poland Sp. z o. o. Czestochowa division (scale factor 1/10) – working with the power of 966 MWth and 120 MWth, respectively. As follows from the results of measurements, regardless of CFB boiler’s geometry the use of a defined set of criterial numbers allows to obtain satisfactory agreement between the suspension density distributions registered in the CFB boilers and scaling models.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Experimental verification of the scaling laws for CFB boilers of different designs}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/85159/PDF/09-paper-Mirek.pdf}, doi={10.1515/cpe-2016-0023}, keywords={fluidisation, circulating fluidised bed, similarity, scaling, hydrodynamics}, }
