Popis: To optimize the structure of the burner, improve the combustion performance, and reduce the emission of NOx, a self-circulating low NOx combustion technology was used to design a new type of flue gas self-circulating low NOx burner. Based on previous research on the numerical model of combustion and the composition of mixed gas on combustion and NOx emissions, the effect of various factors on the ejection coefficient of the flue gas self-circulating structure was analyzed using the orthogonal test method, and the burner operating parameters, such as preheating temperature and excess air coefficient, were deeply studied through the three-dimensional finite element numerical model in this paper. The results show that the diameter ratio of the nozzle and the length of the cylindrical section of the flue gas self-circulating structure have great influence on its ejection and mixing ability. The optimal ejection coefficient was 0.4829. Overall, the amount of NOx emissions greatly increased from 6.23×10−6 (volume fraction) at the preheating temperature 973 K to 3.5×10−3 at preheating temperature 1573 K. When the excess air coefficient decreased from 1.2 to 1, the maximum combustion temperature decreased from 2036.3 K to 1954.22 K, and the NOx emissions decreased from 352.29×10−6 to 159.73×10−6.
