A device for continually conveying dust-like or granular bulk materials into a pressure Chamber, having an inlet opening through which the bulk material is supplied or discharged from a bulk material storage, a housing which is arranged along a rotational axis, a conveying region which adjoins the inlet opening, and a shaft which rotates in the housing and which has a conveyor arranged on the circumference. The rotational axis, the housing and the shaft are arranged vertically, and a seal in the form of a regeneratable material seal stopper. The seal sealing the pressure chamber, is arranged in the conveyor region between the pressure chamber and the inlet opening. The housing has a polygon, a cannelure, or at least one helically running groove on the housing inner wall, and the orientation of the polygon, the cannelure, or the groove runs substantially perpendicularly to the two-dimensional orientation of the conveyor.

A boiler facility includes first and second fuel transfer apparatuses for transporting fine particulate fuel to a combustor. A first fuel transfer apparatus includes a main body and a diffuser. The main body has a flow space through which fuel is transferred and an inner surface that defines the flow space of the main body and includes a lower inner surface that extends obliquely downward. The diffuser is installed at a downstream end of the main body, the diffuser having a flow space through which fuel is transferred and an inner surface that defines the flow space of the first diffuser and includes a lower inner surface that extends obliquely upward. A second fuel transfer apparatus includes a transfer pipe having a flow channel, a second diffuser installed along the inner circumferential surface of the transfer pipe, and a guide installed in the second diffuser and inclined downward.

A head assembly for a pulverized coal nozzle includes removeable wear-resistant inserts having vanes. The vanes may be flat or curved to direct a stream of air and pulverized solid fuel particles from the inlet port toward the outlet port. The curved vanes curve in two dimensions to evenly distribute the stream of air and pulverized solid fuel away from the outer surfaces reducing wear and corrosion. The pipe elbow has a removable cover that allows for easy access. The vanes are attached to a wear-resistant replaceable liner thus allowing them to be easily removed and replaced. The wear-resistant liner may be made from several parts for ease of removal and replacement.

A solid-fuel burner includes: a venturi having a constricting portion where the transverse cross section of a fuel passage is reduced in a fuel nozzle for supplying a solid fuel; and a fuel concentrator for diverting the flow in the nozzle outward in the wake side of the venturi, and the nozzle is formed so that (a) the aperture in the vicinity of an opening portion of a boiler furnace wall surface has a flat shape, (b) cross-sectional shape thereof orthogonal to a nozzle center axis C on the outer peripheral wall of the nozzle is circular in a transverse cross section up to the constricting portion of the venturi, (c) a portion that has a gradually increasing degree of flatness is provided between the constricting portion and the opening portion, and (d) the flat shape in the opening portion is where the degree of flatness reaches a maximum.

A fuel head assembly (120) for a pulverized coal nozzle includes removeable back cover (123) that may be removed substantially horizontally to allow access to liners (141,143,145) inside of the fuel head assembly (120) for servicing. This may be used in places where there access from above the fuel head assembly (120) is restricted. The liners (141,143,145) are constructed of a wear-resistant material and include curved vanes (131,133) for more evenly distributing pulverized solid fuel particles, and for reducing erosion of the fuel head assembly (120).

The present invention relates to a pneumatic conveying system and a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler, belonging to the technical field of CFB boilers. The system comprises an air compressor that supplies compressed air to an air-powder mixer, a coal powder bin that stores coal powder and feeds it into the air-powder mixer via a powder feeder, and the air-powder mixer, which blends the compressed air and coal powder to output an air-powder mixture. The outlet of the air-powder mixer is connected to a main conveying pipe, which branches via a distributor to multiple conveying pipes. These conveying pipes are connected to secondary air pipes on the front, rear, and side walls of the CFB boiler in a sleeve-type manner, delivering the air-powder mixture into the furnace chamber. The invention enhances the load change rate of CFB units from the current 1% Pe/min to over 3% Pe/min, reduces the ignition restart temperature, extends the ignition hold time, and ensures safe and rapid load increase for CFB units.
