Impact of agents mixing velocity in diffusion flame on nitric oxide emission

The results of analyzing an impact of mixing velocity on the stoichiometric surface of a laminar diffusion methane-air flame on nitric oxides formation are presented. The conclusion about the nonlinear and steady decrease of nitric oxides emission at the increase of mixing velocity is made. The relationship is presented, showing that at the expense of non-equilibrium effects it is possible to provide a significant decrease of nitric oxides emission in diffusion combustion.
