A new type of flame organization, dual-stage lean premixed (DLP) combustion, is proposed. It constructs lean premixed flame with nonuniform equivalence ratio in the combustion zone, which is aimed at improving the load adaptability and ensuring low NO x emission of lean premixed combustor. The combustion characteristics of DLP flame were further studied through both experimental and calculation methods. The results showed that the laminarSMOKE code with detail reaction mechanism can accurately simulate the combustion state of DLP flame. Thermocouple measurement has a certain deviation from actual situation, but it still reflects the interaction inside DLP flame. Diffusion transport of CH 4 has an important influence on the combustion of secondary flame. NO x production in DLP flame can be significantly limited because of the abundant intermediates present in combustion zone, and the NO generated is mostly converted into NO 2 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
