Download or read book Fuel Sulfur Effects on No(x) Formation in Turbulent Diffusion Flames written by Timothy Lynn Corley and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interactions between certain fuel sulfur compounds and nitric oxide (NO) in turbulent gaseous and distillate oill diffusion flames were experimentally investigated utilizing a 75,000 Btu/hr laboratory combustor. Aerodynamics, air preheat conditions, and overall excess air conditions were varied to determine their role on any such interaction. Results indicated that addition of sulfur dioxide (SO2) to natural gas flames could enhance or inhibit NO emissions. Local flame stoichiometry and temperature, which were influenced by fuel injector type, determined which effect was observed and the extent to which it occurred.
