However, there is a lack of research on the radiation heat transfer process which is important in gasification simulation. In this study, we developed a new the weighted-sum-of-gray-gases (WSGG) model to calculate the radiation heat transfer properties of CO and CO2 mixtures in solar-driven coal/biomass fuel gasification. Benchmarked against the statistical narrow-band model (SNB) of the EM2C laboratory, the WSGG model is suitable for the temperature range of 400–2500 K and the path length range of 0.001–60 m. This study also explored the effect of the CO/CO2 molar ratio on the overall emissivity of the mixture. Furthermore, the model introduces a pressure term into the emissivity calculation process and broadens the pressure range (1 bar, 5 bar, 45 bar). For the first time, the WSGG model is applied to the case where the H/C element ratio is 0, and the fluctuating temperature distribution case (1000 – 2000 K) is analyzed, which is suitable for coal/biomass fuel gasification. In addition, this study calculated the one-dimensional radiation transfer equation. The results show that the average radiation source term difference between the new WSGG and the benchmark SNB model is within 5 % in common solar gasification engineering conditions (5 bar, 5 m). Meanwhile, this study also clarified the effect of pressure on the radiation heat transfer with different temperatures. date: 2023-08-15 date_type: published publisher: ELSEVIER SCI LTD official_url: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2023.128241 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2017358 doi: 10.1016/j.fuel.2023.128241 lyricists_name: Luo, Kai lyricists_id: KLUOX54 actors_name: Luo, Kai actors_id: KLUOX54 actors_role: owner funding_acknowledgements: 2018BCE01004 [Science and Technology Department of Ningxia Province]; 52206175 [National Natural Science Foundation of China]; 2021M702793 [China Postdoctoral Science Foundation]; 202106320152 [China Scholarship Council]; 2022035 [Academic Rising Star Program]; [Qingshan Overseas Exchange Scholarship]; EP/X035875/1 [UK Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council] full_text_status: public publication: Fuel volume: 346 article_number: 128241 pages: 15 issn: 0016-2361 citation: Zhang, Q; Shan, S; Zhou, Z; Luo, KH; (2023) A new WSGG radiation model of CO/CO₂ mixed gas for solar-driven coal/biomass fuel gasification.
