Porous media combustion is a promising combustion technology that enables operation over an extended range of conditions, with a variety of fuels and low pollutant emissions …
In porous burners, the flame thickness can be smaller than the pore size, resulting in sharp and locally-anchored flame fronts. The presence of such steep gradients at the pore level is …

This paper presents a numerical analysis of combustion and multimode heat transfer in inert porous media. The work is directly relevant to the understanding of premixed flame …
Industry depends upon radiant heating for many of its manufacturing processes. Driven by the desire for higher radiant heating rates and the need to emit minimal pollutants, interest in …
An experimental setup combining computer-generated geometries, additive-manufacturing, a telecentric lens and CH⋆ chemiluminiscence is used to visualize the flame inside an …
This numerical study brings a comparison of a cylindrical porous burner with graded porosity and a conical porous burner with uniform porosity. Both burners have the same void area …
Porous media burners (PMBs) enable enhanced combustion performance by internally recirculating heat released from the combustion products upstream to the reactants via an …
Porous media combustion (PMC) has interesting advantages compared with free flame combustion due to higher burning rates, increased power dynamic range, extension of the …
