ACFM Extractive Fuel Pipe Testing

The Advanced coal flow measurement system (AFCM) was designed and developed strictly to measure air and fuel flows through coal pipes. It is a computer controlled PC-based isokinetic extraction type testing system. It utilizes a dirty air probe for air flow measurement, and 3 types of advanced coal sampling probes.

The computer controlled isokinetic extraction rate is adjusted point by point to maintain 100% isokinetic coal extraction across the pipe velocity profile. Each pipe is carefully tested to assure accuracy within 3% for air and 6% for coal. Any deviation out of this tolerance will nullify that particular test and restart another.
