Abstract
In the study of the combustion of samples, it was found that, other things being equal, under the experimental conditions and with the fixed technical characteristics of the fuel, different parameters of the flame are observed, namely, the speed of reaching a stationary mode, the completeness of fuel combustion, the size and distribution of temperature zones strongly depend on the methods used to carry out the mechanical fuel processing. Comparison of the results showed that under the same experimental conditions, the temperature distribution along the length of the experimental stand, in a stationary mode of operation, is higher for the composite fuel. In the case of composite fuel, 70 percent of the fuel burned up was observed at a 1 m section, which is indicative of these fuel consumption and kindling processes at industrial thermal power plants.
