Abstract
Experiments have been carried out to develop the high efficiency combustion burner which is achieved the energy saving and low CO_2 emission by utilization of the infrared rays of 4 to 1000μm in wave lengthen. It is well known that the lower hydrocarbon fuels such as methane can absorb much infrared rays at the wave lengthen of around 8μm. These rays may contribute to promote more collision behavior between fuel molecular and oxidizer, and consequently the flame temperature gives rise to increase. The acquisitions of experimental data are as follows: (1) the average flame temperature during combustion brings about the temperature rise of about 50℃ by utilization of the energy seat which can emitted much infrared rays and (2) the energy saving rate obtained in the study is approximately 15% when the energy seat is attached in combustion burner.
