Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate the effect of properties of porous combustor (PC) of the late
mixing porous burner (LMPB) on the thermal structure and radiant output efficiency by mean of numerical
modeling. The flow and heat transfer are one-dimensional. The combustion reaction is considered as a
single-step first order reaction. The parametric study is a porosity and absorption coefficient. The results
indicate that the optimum property of porous medium that is used as porous combustor of LMPB is a porosity
in the range of 0.4 - 0.6 and absorption coefficient is 100.
