摘要：

The self-heating and spontaneous combustion of biomass fuels are important issues related to the safe operation of biomass fired power plants. In order to acquire timely and reliable predictive information of biomass fuels, it is necessary to measure the moisture distribution of a biomass silo on an online basis. However, there is limited research on related techniques, especially measurement of moisture distribution in a biomass silo. In this paper, electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is used to measure moisture distribution. Eight capacitive electrodes are deployed in an octagonal silo. Moisture distribution is measured, based on the non-intrusive measurements of electrical capacitances between the electrodes mounted on the octagonal silo. Some image reconstruction algorithms are used to reconstruct moisture distribution. Experimental results demonstrate that ECT is capable of measuring wet area in a biomass silo, which accounts for 4% similar to 81% within a relative error of +/- 10%.
