Abstract
The combination of burner and combustion chamber is one of important factors controlling flame characteristics, which has never been to our knowledge investigated systematically. In the present study, coaxial jet diffusion flames in cylindrical combustion chambers have been studied in terms of inner diameter of the combustion chamber, global equivalence ratio and turbulence in air flow. It has been found that the increase in the diameter of combustion chamber enhances the exhaust gas self-recirculation, as the result decreases the NOx emission.
