Abstract

Addressing the need for innovative burner designs to optimize combustion characteristics and meet energy efficiency goals, this study introduces a novel concept rooted in swirl-induced flames. The proposed burner employs a unique approach to generate air and fuel swirl using four opposing slots in two sets, each set at distinct angles. Incorporating of a channel within the outer casing allows for fine-tuning of entry angles, optimizing the double swirling process. The objective of this research is to enhance combustion characteristics through the implementation of the swirl principle, introducing a tangential velocity component to the airflow or fuel-air mixture upon entry into the burner. Systematic measurements at various entry angles (0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, and 60°) are conducted to identify optimal or near-optimal conditions. The research covers a comparison between flow fields generated by traditional swirled vanes and swirl-induced injection ports at identical inlet conditions, revealing enhanced flame stability and combustion efficiency in the latter configuration. The formation of recirculation zones around the burner, facilitated by increased outer air jet velocities, promotes better mixing and stability. This research contributes valuable insights into burner design and optimization, with implications for improved combustion efficiency and environmental sustainability.
