Özet
This study investigates biomass gasification in a novel downdraft gasifier, specifically analysing the gasification performance of pinecones, hazelnut shells, and pine wood as a feedstock fuel. With a useful computational fluid dynamics model, the production of synthesis gas (syngas) was evaluated in terms of content and compared to experimental data. A novel approach utilizing a cost-effective combustion model incorporating the probability density function was employed to predict the concentrations of CO, CH4, and H2 in the syngas content. With the developed reactor, the inlet of air from four different points into the oxidation zone facilitated the attainment of temperatures exceeding 750 °C along the reactor, with a maximum temperature reaching 974 °C, which is essential for syngas formation. The analyses indicated that the syngas generated predominantly consists of CO (38.7%), CH4 (2.5%), and H2 (35.1 …
