Numerical Study on High Temperature Air Combustion in U-Type Tube Available to Purchase

In this paper, the combustion characteristics of natural gas with high-temperature air combustion technology in a U-type combustion chamber were investigated by the numerical method. The results of the CFD-based mathematical modeling of rated condition were compared with experimental data including the maximum temperature, average temperature and NO emission. The research indicates that the combustion can be well simulated using the suggested numerical model. The temperature distribution, velocity distribution in the combustion chamber and NO emission were attained. In addition, the effects of some parameters such as oxygen concentration, excessive air ratio and combustion air temperature were discussed in detail. It provided primarily theoretic basis for further study of natural gas high temperature air combustion.
