Abstract Moderate and intense low-oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion is appealing due to its uniform heat flux profile and low NOx emissions. The new generation of MILD coal combustion burners use high-speed jets with strong turbulent mixing. The dispersion of the coal particles in the high-speed jet is a key issue in such systems. There are many studies of the dispersion of spherical particles in particle-laden jets in the literature. However, the dispersion of fossil fuel particles, which are typically not spherical, differs from that of spherical particles, so the dispersion characteristics of these non-spherical particles in high-speed jets still deserves further study. This study used glass beads, glass powder and pulverized coal as the solid phase in a high-speed two-phase round jet for a wide range of Reynolds numbers. The particle concentrations, velocities and turbulent kinetic energy distributions were measured for various particle sphericities, sizes and jet velocities using laser phase-Doppler anemometry (PDA). The results show that the concentration, velocity and turbulent kinetic energy distribution characteristics of non-spherical particles are similar to those of smaller spherical particles. However, the non-spherical particle dispersion cannot be accurately characterized by just the Stokes number since the lift can strongly affect the particle dispersion. Non-spherical particles are more easily dispersed than spherical particles, mainly due to a significant increase in the radial turbulent kinetic energy. Increasing the jet velocity promotes the shear layer growth and radial dispersion of the particles and more strongly influences the non-spherical particle dispersion than the particle size or sphericity.
