Flame stability and behavior inside meso-scale combustor with different flame holder was investigated experimentally. Three types of flame holder i.e. wire mesh, flat plate with circular holes and flat plate with narrow slits, were used to improve the flame stability inside the meso-scale combustor. Combustor with flat plate - narrow slits flame holder has the best flame stability, i.e. stable flame established inside the combustor at the highest reactant velocity compared to the other combustor with the different flame holder. Furthermore, combustor with wire mesh and flat plate with narrow slits have a relatively uniform flame colour at the combustor cross section, compared to flame visualization inside meso-scale combustor with flame holder of flat plate with circular holes. This phenomena is related to non-uniform reactant distribution on the combustor cross section.
