Popis: The three-layered struts within SiC reticulated porous ceramics (RPC) were designed to improve the thermal characteristics and thermal shock resistance of porous burner. The effects of strut structure and its composition on the flame stability limits, flame temperature and thermal damage resistance of porous burner were investigated. The results showed that three-layered struts consisted of continuous mullite coating, middle layer of SiC skeleton and inner layer of reaction-bonded mullite after sintering at 1450 °C. Compared to porous media with single layer, RPC with three-layered struts possessed the combined effects of high thermal conductivity and heat radiation because of its middle layer of SiC skeleton and in-situ formed mullite coating. The three-layered struts in porous media extended the flame stability limits and increased the flame temperature of porous burner. Furthermore, the formation of three-layered struts eliminated strut defects and formed continuous mullite coating, thereby significantly improving the oxidation resistance and thermal shock resistance of RPC, which increased the service life of porous burner.
