Measurement of the Radiative Properties of Gas and Oil Flames

摘要

Radiation and concentration measurements were carried out with different flame lengths in order to predict the interaction between furnace and flame in respect of heat emission with combustion spaces of varying dimensions. Fuel, heat throughput, burner momentum, air ratio and, in some cases, the mementum of the atomizing air were varied. Evaluation of the instrument readings will furnish information about the local distribution of the degree of emission and temperature under different input conditions and give an idea of the variations to be expected when changing over from a small combustion space to a larger one. The paper deals mainly with the radiation and temperature measuring methods used and presents a description of the test setup. The results obtained are outlined.
