A Two-Dimensional Study on the Effect of Anisotropy on the Devolatilization of a Large Wood Log

In this work, a two-dimensional (2D) model for wood particle drying, devolatilization, and char conversion is presented and validated against experimental studies of devolatilization of a large, dry, cylindrical birch wood log. The wood log’s internal distributions of temperature, solid sp...
