Combustion Characteristics and NOx Emission through a Swirling Burner with Adjustable Flaring Angle
Blog Article
A swirling burner with a variable inner secondary air (ISA) flaring angle β is proposed and a laboratory scale opposed-firing furnace is built.Temperature distribution and NOx emission are designedly measured.The combustion characteristics affected by variable β are experimentally evaluated from ignition and burnout data.
Meanwhile, NOx reduction by the variable β is analyzed through emissions measurements.Different inner/outer primary jerome brown jersey coal-air concentration ratios γ, thermal loads and coal types are considered in this study.Results indicate that β variation provides a new approach to here promote ignition and burnout, as well as NOx emission reduction under conditions of fuel rich/lean combustion and load variation.
The recommended β of a swirling burner under different conditions is not always constant.The optimal βopt of the swirling burner under all conditions for different burning performance are summarized in the form of curves, which could provide reference for exquisite combustion adjustment.
