Abstract The existing biogas Conventional Burners (CBs) are less energy efficient and are designed for rich fuel combustion. Porous Media Burner (PMB), working on the principle of combustion in porous media offer several advantages including high thermal efficiency, low emissions, high power intensity, etc. In this work, a study on the effect of porous material on the thermal behaviour of a biogas operated PMB is presented. A state-of-the-art PMB working in the thermal load range of 5 to 10 kW has been developed, which can be used for both industrial and domestic purposes. It is a two section burner composed of a combustion zone and a preheat zone. Keeping the material of the preheat zone unchanged (Al2O3 ceramic), the burner is tested with two different materials in the combustion zone (SiC and ZrO2 foams). Experimental investigation has been done to analyze the stability criteria and study the temperature distribution in the PMB. This includes the identification of the stable operating limits (flashback and blow off) and measurement of temperature profiles in axial and radial direction. These assessments confirm that SiC is a better choice over ZrO2 for lean biogas combustion in PMB.

The purpose of this work is developing the numerical 1D model of porous media combustion for investigating porous media burner systems. The software is used to solve energy, mass transfer and chemical reaction equation of the combustion. The operating condition and property parameters, which mainly affect the functions and quality of the industrial burner design, such as the inlet velocity of the reactants, the equivalence ratio, the extinction coefficient and the thermal conductivity of porous media, will be investigated and validated with experimental data. For developing the procedure of experiment, three diameter sizes of porous media materials (5 mm, 10 mm, and 15 mm.) were used. As a result, the developed model will be used as a tool to explore temperature distribution of heat exchange to improve thermal performance and overall efficiency system. Moreover, this knowledge can be applied to design porous media burner systems for uniform temperature distribution operation.
