Abstract:
Due to the high content of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, the anisotropy of biomass particle in spatial structure induces the difference of mechanical properties in different directions. In this paper, based on the finite stochastic breakup model and anisotropy of biomass particles, 2-dimensional finite stochastic breakup model (2D-FSBM) of biomass particle was proposed, and the breakup process of biomass particle was investigated. In this model, the strength difference in different directions and the minimum mass ratio of a sub-particle to the parent particle were both considered. The simulation results agreed well with the experimental results in particle shapes, which indicated that 2D-FSBM could predict the breakup process of biomass particles.
