DLF Sustainable
Postbus 1077
2600 BB Delft
start of the project:
February 2007
In December 2007 the
Interim Thesis
has been appeared and a
presentation has been given.
The Master project has been finished
in July 2008 by the completion of the
Masters Thesis
and a final
poster presentation has been given.
There are videos available from an
industrial burner
and the
Rijke tube.
For working address etc. we refer to our
alumnipage.
Summary of the master project:
DLF Sustainable is a specialist in the field of thermodynamical
applications. Examples are: sludge dryers/incinerators, heaters, food
dryers, gasification units, etc.
One of our top products is the Pulsed Combustion Burner suitable for
small and large power capacities. With this type of burner we achieve
production increase as high as 40 % due to the extreme increase of
heat exchange capacity. Depending on the application we achieve often
a 10 tot 50 % saving on energy.
Advanced 5 MW pulsed combustion burner
In this master thesis project, research is planned to have a better
understanding of the pulsed combustion burner. As a first start we
investigate the modelling and simulation of a Rijke
tube. Research questions are:
enhancement of the efficiency, optimization of the geometry,
understanding the frequency of the oscillations etc.
