A reduced-order model (ROM) is considered a promising solution for engineering simulation of a gasifier. In this study, a ROM of a commercial-scale opposed multiburner gasifier is developed based on a reactor network model (RNM). The RNM blocking for this gasifier is established and validated based on analysis of the gasifier flow field. The particle flow in the gasifier is characterized by the particle residence time in each reactor of the RNM. The random pore model and the 鈥渆ffective factor鈥?method are employed to model the char gasification rate under high pressure and temperature. The interphase heat transfer and heat loss through the refractory wall are calculated. In model validation, the simulation results show well agreement with the industrial data. The model provides distributions of the gas temperature and compositions in the gasifier. Effects of the particle size on the particle temperature and carbon conversion are discussed quantitatively. It is observed that fine particles can be completely converted in the jet zone, while the large ones (>100 渭m) are converted mainly in the impinging zone and impinging flow zone.
