Heat regenerator attached in small-scale regenerative radiant tube burner was designed using the theoretical computation code and was confirmed the performance of waste heat recovery ratio. From the computation, when ceramic ball of 4-5kg was used, temperature efficiency and available waste heat recovery ratio were predicted 80% and 70%, respectively. Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 850$^{\circ}C$ which was moth lower than that we expected. air preheating temperature was lowered below 800$^{\circ}C$.

Similar efficiencies were obtained from the experiments using LPG. However, since exhaust gas temperature entered into regenerator was below 85$0^{\circ}C$ which was much lower than that we expected, preheat air temperature was lowered below 80$0^{\circ}C$.

For the design of Aluminium pool furnace, position of burner and pool depth effects on flow and temperature field in Aluminium pool furnace are examined by the commercial computational code, CFD-ACE+. From the results, position of burner which is on the same face in side wall is better to distribute the flow field in Al furnace. That yields temperature to distribute more uniformly. And the burner position is on upper wall, fire frame reach pool surface. Customer must consider that, because it make Aluminium to oxidize.

An Experimental study was conducted on spray combustion using dual swirlers at different outlet angle; co-swirl and counter-swirl. To understand the characteristics of turbulent spray combustion of dual swirl flow (DSF), the axial helical annular vaned swirlers with various swirl ratios and combination of angle and direction were designed. and temperature measurements of a rapidly thermocouple insertion and measurements of soot volume fraction and microrstructure using thermophoretic sampling particle diagnostic (TSPD) as TEM were carried out. The NOx, $CO_2$, $O_2$, etc. was analyzed using emission gas analyzer. The results show that flame stability were maintained under very lean condition. for both co-swirl and counter-swirl case. And though Counter-swirl case kept the higher temperature region compared to co-swirl case, Counter-swirl combustion represented less NOx emission and soot formation than co-swirl case.

Recently, much attention has been paid to utilizing highly preheated air up to $1,000^{\circ}C$ through waste gas in industrial furnaces. The regenerative burner technology has shown to provide significant reduction in energy consumption (up to 60%), downsizing of the equipment (about 30%) and lower emissions (about 30%) while maintaining high thermal performance of the system since 2000. The object of this study is to develop the flameless regenerative burner for industrial furnaces based on the FLOX(Flameless Oxidation) principle and it has been designed and manufactured as pilot scale. Performance tests are experimentally done and their results are discussed. They showed 1) a very good uniformity in temperature distribution, 2) about 100 ppm in NOx at the temperature $1,300^{\circ}C$, 3) about 95% in temperature efficiency. Besides, the regenerative burner has advantage in easy maintenance and high usage rate of regenerator due to the separate and portable type of heat exchanger.
