Abstract: | Combustion experiments for three coals of different ranks were conducted in an electrically-heated drop tube furnace. The
size distributions of major elements in the residual ash particles (>0.4μm) such as Al, Si, S, P, Na, Mg, K, Ca and Fe were
investigated. The experimental results showed that the concentrations of Al and Si in the residual ash particles decreased
with decreasing particle size, while the concentrations of S and P increased with decreasing particle size. No consistent
size distributions were obtained for Na, Mg, K, Ca and Fe. The established deposition model accounting for trace element distributions
was demonstrated to be applicable to some major elements as well. The modeling results indicated that the size distributions
of the refractory elements, Al and Si, were mainly influenced by the deposition of vaporized elements on particle surfaces.
A dominant fraction of S and P vaporized during coal combustion. Their size distributions were determined by surface condensation,
reaction or adsorption. The partitioning mechanisms of Na, Mg, K, Ca and Fe were more complex.
