Development and validation of a combustion model for a fuel cell off-gas burner
… comprising a solid oxide fuel cell coupled to a gas turbine has been developed by Rolls-Royce Fuel Cell Systems. As part of the cycle, a fraction of the unreacted fuel (the off-gas) and oxidizer streams is reacted in a burner, which is the main source of pollutant formation. In this thesis a …

Experimental Investigation of Liquid and Gas Fueled Flames Towards the Development of a Burning Rate Emulator (BRE) for Microgravity Applications
… but radiation likely affected the wicks results. Gas burner flame stand-off distances when emulating methanol flames were in reasonable agreement, showing similarities in laminar, onset of turbulent flow, and boundary layer separation. 0g ethanol wick flames from drop tower testing and airplane …

Fail-Safe Testing of Safety-Critical Systems
… technique to a variety of applications such as a Gas burner, an Aerospace Launch System, and a Railroad Crossing Control System. We also investigate the scalability of the approach and compare its efficiency with integrating a state chart and a fault tree. Construction and Analysis of Distributed …

Combustion of lignin-oil-water mixtures in a rotary kiln
… replacing the external fuel, such as natural gas or fuel oil, presently used. In this work lignin-oil-water mixtures were investigated as a fuel. The rheology of the lignin-oil-water mixtures was studied; and a pilot scale preparation facility and firing system were devised. Tests were then …

Fluid dynamics of boundary layer combustion
… University of Maryland, examined a stationary gas burner located in a laminar boundary layer with stationary streaks which could be probed with point measurements. The gas temperature within streaks increased downstream; however, the gas temperature of the regions between streaks decreased. …
