Show The PFB boiler systems, even though the design conditions are much less severe than proposed PFB combined cycle power plants, still offer the following technical challenges: 1. Verification of turbine reliability when running on low temperature (^1000°F) flue gas. 2. Verification of acceptable gas cleanup by full-scale cyclones. 3. Proof of suitability of Fuller-Kinyon pumps for operation at 4 atm absolute pressure. 4. Verification of load-following and various control schemes. REFERENCES 1. G. C.
