The new method allows high laser intensities of any level. Thus, the novel backscattering sources generate X and Gamma-radiation with highest brilliance and intensity and low bandwidth.
The Institute of Combustion and Power Plant Technology (IFK) of the University of Stuttgart has developed a measuring device for use in coal power plants. The device allows for permanent monitoring of the conditions inside the boiler, particularly of soot deposition.
Besides determining the deposition rate inside the boiler, growth characteristics, adhesion, ash qualities and waste disposal behavior with deposit as well as the extent to which these can be cleaned using soot blowers can be judged. Thus, the measuring device can indicate potential for optimization, e.g. of coal compositon in the fuel feed.
The prototype has been tested successfully.
The IBS research team headed by the associate director of CCES, KIM Chang Young, presented the possibility of unifying theories to explain the working…
