Abstract The report gives a synopsis of data collected from investigating the relationship between combustion, aerodynamics, and pollutant emission characteristics of industrial burners. Five types of burners were studied: a scaled-down utility power boiler burner; a high-intensity (flat-flame) burner; a movable-block burner developed by the International Flame Research Foundation; an axial flow burner; and a baffle burner used in steel reheat furnaces. Broad conclusions, applicable to all burners tested, were: burners using radial gas injection produce peak NO at 11% or less excess air; burners using axial gas injection produce peak NO at 22% or more excess air; NO concentration increases with increasing air preheat, but the magnitude of the change depends on burner design and the gas injection method; and changing from axial to radial gas injection consistently results in an increase in NO concentration.
Highlights Notes Investigates the relationship between combustion, aerodynamics, and pollution emission characteristics of industrial burners.
