Abstract

The present paper deals with the design of an efficient premix burner design for low calorific value producer gas as a fuel. The proposed premix and the existing available conventional burner are tested and operated on a 10 kg/h capacity downdraft gasifier with garden waste feed. The premix burner (PB) has dual slits swirl vane for air-fuel mixing along with a bluff body each at an angle of 32° and 45°, designed based on simulation results from numerical simulations. Its performance is compared with a conventional burner (CB). Flame temperature variation at different axial and radial distance for both the burners was studied. Flame temperature variation with λ (Ratio of actual air/fuel by stoichiometric air/fuel) are determined. The average NOx and CO emissions for PB are found to be 55% and 70% lower than the CB under nearly identical conditions. PM10 and PM2.5 particulate matter emissions are 65% lower in PB than CB during a stable flame time (15–120 min). The thermal efficiency for PB mode was 55% and that for CB it was 26%. PB showed a better flame stability, higher flame temperatures, lower emissions and higher thermal efficiency as compared to the CB.
