Nitrogen oxide formation as a function of the shape of the flame in an experimental gas burner. Stikstofoxidenvorming als functie van de vlamvorm bij experimentele gasbrander

Abstract

One of the options to reduce the emission of NO[sub x] from gas-fired or coal-fired power plants is to develop new burners or to improve the control of existing burners. The purpose of this investigation is to develop a measuring method to control the combustion process in each burner of a gas-fired or coal-fired power plant concerning NO[sub x]-emission, a constant energy production and stability of the combustion. A passive spectroscopic measuring method was developed, in which use is made of the light, emitted by the flame. Based on the measured values the NO[sub x]-emissions and the shape of the flame were correlated. From the correlations it appears that flame shape and NO[sub x]-emissions correspond quite well
