Abstract
A drainable discharge pan apparatus for an impact type particle separator used on circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers employs a plurality of funnel shaped discharge pans located at a lower end of each of the impingement members in the impact type particle separator. The funnel shaped discharge pans prevent accumulation of collected particles thereon, allowing particles collected by the impingement members to fall therethrough, while preventing bypassing of flue gas around lower ends of the impact type particle separator. The outlet ends of the funnel shaped discharge pans provide substantially the same open area for the collected particles to fall therethrough as exists within each associated impingement member.
