Abstract
Adiabatic combustion of methane (natural gas)-hydrogen mixtures is analyzed The adiabatic flame temperature and products composition (especially NOx and CO2 concentrations) variation with excess air (fuel-air equivalence ratio), hydrogen enrichment of methane, and reactant temperature is determined It is shown that reductions in NOx and CO2 emissions are possible with the extended lean limit of combustion of methane associated with hydrogen enrichment CO2 concentrations are also reduced with hydrogen enrichment, reductions being dependent upon the degree of enrichment.
