| Résumé: | Syngas produced by gasification, which contains a high hydrogen content, has significant potential. The variation in the hydrogen content and dilution combustion are effective means to improve the steady combustion of syngas and reduce NO<sub>x</sub> emissions. OH planar laser-induced fluorescence technology (OH-PLIF) was applied in the present investigation of the turbulence of a premixed flame of syngas with varied compositions of H<sub>2</sub>/CO. The flame front structure and turbulent flame velocities of syngas with varied compositions and turbulent intensities were analyzed and calculated. Results showed that the trend in the turbulent flame speed with different hydrogen proportions and dilutions was similar to that of the laminar flame speed of the corresponding syngas. A higher hydrogen proportion induced a higher turbulent flame speed, higher OH concentration, and a smaller flame. Dilution had the opposite effect. Increasing the Reynolds number also increased the turbulent flame speed and OH concentration. In addition, the effect of the turbulence on the combustion of syngas was independent of the composition of syngas after the analysis of the ratio between the turbulent flame speed and the corresponding laminar flame speed, for the turbulent flames under low turbulent intensity. These research results provide a theoretical basis for the practical application of syngas with a complex composition in gas turbine power generation. |
