NOx emission performance assessment on a perforated plate-implemented premixed ammonia-oxygen micro-combustion system

Tao Cai et al.

Summary: This study examines the NOx emission characteristics of a premixed micro-combustion system with a perforated plate implemented. The model developed involves a detailed chemical-kinetic mechanism and shows that the flow field, conjugate heat transfer, and preferential diffusion effect play key roles in the NOx emission variation in the recirculation zones.

Effects of propane addition and burner scale on the combustion characteristics and working performance

Qingguo Peng et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of burner size and fuel properties on combustion and working performance, finding that the addition of propane improved thermal performance and increased radiation power at lower fuel flow rates. Furthermore, chamber diameter and heat recirculation zones significantly altered burning reactions and extended flame blow-off limits, with a more uniform temperature profile achieved in appropriately sized tubes with suitable step heights.

Role of hydrogen addition in propane/air flame characteristic and stability in a micro-planar combustor

Aikun Tang et al.

Summary: Experimental study on micro-scale combustion with a micro-planar quartz combustor shows that blending hydrogen significantly extends flame stability by overcoming flame instability and inhibiting flame type transition. The addition of hydrogen affects flame dynamics and helps maintain flame symmetry.

Evaluation of NOx emissions characteristics in a CO2-Free micro-power system by implementing a perforated plate

Tao Cai et al.

Summary: Ammonia, as a carbon-free fuel with high hydrogen content, has potential applications in transportation, propulsion, and power generation sectors. However, direct combustion of ammonia leads to high NOx emission, which needs to be mitigated. Factors such as plate porosity, thickness, distance, and inlet pressure play important roles in reducing NO formation.
