Abstract

In this paper the experimental results for the fuel side burner transfer function and the fuel side flame transfer function of a turbulent non-premixed coal gas flame are presented. The burner used in the experiments is a scale burner based on the Siemens V94.2 coal gas burner. The burner transfer function behaves as expected by the theory. For the flame transfer function a parameter study has been performed. The flame transfer function scales well with the Strouhal number. By increasing the swirl of the fuel flow the flame becomes shorter, the flame transfer function changes according to the theory for a shorter flame. The addition of a swirl perturbator makes that the amplitude of the flame transfer function decreases, probably because of the stabilisation of the flow.
