Original abstract
The object of the present paper is a review of issues related to the testing of gas and liquid fuel burners, which are amongst the most important items of equipment in materials-processing and energyproducing industries. The text gives basic information about fuels, types of burners and their testing and also about modelling of combustion and formation of pollutants, mainly nitrogen oxides. The first two sections of the text provide an overview of fuels and burner types. Most part of the paper deals with an assessment of conditions and equipment required for testing of gas and liquid fuel burners. Conditions that must be satisfied in burner tests in order to preserve comparable operating conditions as in the real application are stressed. The last part provides an outline of the utilisation of statistical analysis methods and modelling by computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) including the formation of pollutants.
