The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the mathematical modelling of the combustion of coal particles in pulverised coal furnaces, and also to propose an algorithm for its numerical solution. The mathematical model includes two coupled phases: the solid phase, for the coal particles, where a Lagrangian description is used and an Eulerian description for the gas phase, where the effects of the combustion of coal particles are homogenised.
