The Effects of CO2, N2, and H2O Dilutions on NO Formation of Partially Premixed Synthesis Gas Combustion
Abstract
One of the main methods to decrease NO emission during the combustion of gases is the use of diluents. This study is interested in the effects of CO2, N2, and H2O dilutions in the adiabatic, turbulent, partially premixed combustion of synthesis gas. The amounts of NO emissions are computationally determined. The results show that NO maximizes at 1.39 of equivalence ratio under humid burning air conditions. The best reductive effect on NO emissions indicates H2O dilution followed by CO2 and N2. The increase in the dilution rates gradationally reduces NO. The rising pressure enhances NO emissions with/without diluters. The increasing inlet air and premixed mixture temperatures raises NO.
