Abstract

The effects of pressure on combustion characteristics of the conical flameholder were investigated experimentally in the pressure range from 0.11 ㎫ to 0.40 ㎫. The result shows that the total equivalence ratio of lean limit becomes lower as the combustor inlet pressure rises and NOx emission is proportional to the pressure to the 0.5th power.
