Combined Convective-Radiative Heat Transfer Enhancement in an Advanced Gas-Fired Surface Combustor-Heater. Final Report, March 1990-July 1993

摘要

To provide a basis for developing an advanced high-efficiency and ultra-low emission combustion heat exchange device to replace conventional convective heat transfer equipment in various natural gas-fired applications, an investigation of the mechanisms of combined convective-radiative heat transfer that interacts with combustion in the surface combustor heater has been performed. Extensive experimentation and mathematical modeling are described.
