Description
Summary:The hydrogen is expected to become the energy vector of the future. If for environmental protection this concept it is obvious, the data for the design of hydrogen combustion facilities are still insufficient. This paper discusses the fundamental actions related to the design of a hydrogen burner. Numerical modelling researches using the Ansys-Fluent software has shown the link between the flow velocity in combustible gas jets together with the required air and the combustion rates. Combustion models (both analytical and numerical) allowed finding the optimal ratios between the two specified velocities (combustion and flow) compared to those for methane combustion, correlated also with the classical directions and recommendations for the burner design.
