Additional information

This paper presents the novel design and application of rod-type electrostatic sensors to the velocity measurement of pulverised coal and biomass-coal blends in pneumatic pipelines. The electrostatic sensors are optimized through mathematical and computational modelling and have excellent repeatability and dynamic response. The work has been adopted by RWE npower at Tilbury, the largest biomass power plant in the world (Corporate Engineer, gerry.riley@RWEnpower.com). The paper led to Yan being invited to give keynote lectures at the 17th Conference of the IFRF (International Flame Research Foundation) (http://www.ngcom.it/17thMC/) and at the 7th International Symposium on Measurement Techniques for Multiphase Flows (http://www.ismtmf.com/).
