An experimental study of the burner rim stability characteristics and the flame base structure of flames co-fired with pulverized coal and propane gas is presented. Lift-off and reattachment characteristics are examined as functions of propane concentration in the jet stream for lignite, bituminous and anthracite coals. The effects on flame base structure are studied in terms of temperature, product species concentration and radiation profiles. The addition of lignite and anthracite coals favours the lift-off transitions. Bituminous coal, on the other hand, makes the flame more stable. The peak values of temperature and concentrations of major combustion product species in the flame stabilization region strongly depend upon the rank of coal. Among the coals tested, bituminous coal produces the highest peak temperature and its flame emits maximum radiation from the stabilization region. Anthracite and lignite coals produce somewhat comparable stability characteristics and structure of the flame base. The effects of coal rank are explained by the differences in volatile matter, moisture and pyrolysis characteristics of coals.

The conditions of stabilization of combustion of detached gas jets on the vertical surface of the range of nozzle diameters d0 = 1.6–3.0 mm are investigated. The mechanism of flame stabilization of a detached gas jet on a vertical surface is shown, which allows to increase the gas flow rate through one nozzle by 3 or more times with stable combustion, compared to diffusion combustion of a free gas jet, which is not stabilized. The optimal distance to the vertical refractory surface in the nozzle calibers for the creation of slot bottom burner devices has been established. The necessity of using the minimum angles of attack till failure of combustion, which were experimentally founded, for the construction of slot bottom burner devices, is substantiated. It is experimentally established that starting from the gas pressure in the collector-pipe near 500 mmwg and, accordingly, the speed of its flow through the nozzle is more than near 100 m/s at a distance to the vertical surface on which the flame is stabilized 15 < L/d0 <= 30, for the range of nozzle diameters d0 = 1.6–3.0 mm, dimensionless area base sg/s0 of the elliptical cylinder Eb, less than 2–2.5 times of the maximum observed at a distance L/d0 near 40.
