Oxycoal combustion was numerically simulated in a lab-scale cylindrical furnace (Φ200 mm × 2 m) with high-velocity oxygen jets. The mesoscopic characteristics of turbulent flame behavior such as nondimensional numbers ReT, Ka, and Da were calculated under different jet positions and jet spacing. The results show that for coflow burners, large spacing (L = 75 mm) is not favored due to poor radial mixing and the restriction of wall; except L = 75 mm, as jet spacing increases, the oxidizer flow could be internally diluted to a lower concentration and preheated to a higher temperature, at least 1000 K; for L = 60 mm conditions, the maximum temperature increase is lower than the ignition temperature (437 °C), they are, namely, oxycoal moderate or intense low oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion. For MILD conditions, the mesoscopic parameters of the flame front where temperature gradient is the largest locate in the distributed regime corresponding to l/lF > 1, ReT > 1, Kaδ > 1, and Da < 1, the global regime is depicted as 1 < l/lF < 4, 60 < ReT < 150, 50 < Ka < 500, and Da < 1; for flaming conditions, the regime is depicted as 1 < l/lF < 6, 40 < ReT < 110, 10 < Ka < 800, and Da < 1.

Flameless combustion, MILD (moderate or intense low oxygen dilution) combustion and HiTAC (high temperature air combustion) all refer to a combustion regime characterized by high temperatures and a high dilution of reactants. In most cases, this is achieved by recirculating exhaust gases. This leads to comparatively low oxygen concentrations, a largely uniform temperature field and to a drastically reduced NOx formation. Up to now, the application of this combustion technology for gas turbine combustion chambers is still in an early development stage. Most investigations of flameless or MILD combustion chambers have been carried out for methane or certain fuel blends. Since this combustion technology has already successfully demonstrated low NOx emissions without the need of premixing with its potential risks of flashback and autoignition, it might be a promising technology for hydrogen burning combustion chambers. The scope of this paper is to investigate a hydrogen combustion chamber for its NOx emission characteristics and for its use in the flameless or MILD combustion regime. Thus, the influence of different inlet parameters (excess air ratio, thermal input of hydrogen, inlet velocity of the combustion air, pressure inside the combustion chamber) on the emission characteristics of the combustion chamber are examined experimentally. Additionally, for one operating point, a two–dimensional numerical simulation of the combustion chamber was carried out.
