in studies done on porous burner, generally burners with axial flow are considered. in this paper, porous burners with radial and axial flow have been modeled numerically and results of radial and axial porous burners with equal fuel consumptions are compared. the mechanism used in combustion phenomenon is 15 stage mechanisms which predict the pollutions production precisely. the results show a...

Many observers have studied th e infrared emi sion of a Bunsen flame [11. 2 The strongest band ocem s at about 4.4 Il and is produced by carbon dioxid e. Other bands have been found a t 0.95, 1.45, 2.0, and 2.8 Il , and are a ttributed to carbon dioxide and water vapor. Very little radiation has been observed in the region beyond 7 Il . In the visible and ultraviolet regions of the spectrum, co...

This paper discusses optimal control strategies for switching between different burner modes in a novel compact marine boiler design. The ideal behaviour is defined in a performance index the minimisation of which defines an ideal trade-off between deviations in boiler pressure and water level from their respective setpoints and the cost of burner switches and variation of continuous input flow...

We study the optimization of the spatial distribution of fuel injection rates in a gas turbine burner. An automated procedure is implemented for the optimization. The procedure entails an evolutionary optimization algorithm and an automated interface for the modification of the parameters in the experimental setup for the fuel injection and for the post-processing. The evolutionary algorithm is...

Rayleigh scattering temperature measurements were obtained in a turbulent reactive swirling coaxial jet discharged from a swirl-stabilized burner along the jet-flame centerline. They are reported up to 10 fuel nozzle diameters downstream of the burner exit at a Reynolds number of 29000. The effect of swirl numbers (S=0.3, 0.58, 1.07) on the temperature fields, the power spectral density of temp...
