Advanced Combustion Technologies
Flow rate is the volume of fluid that passes through a given surface per unit of time, typically measured in cubic meters per second (m³/s) or liters per minute (L/min). It plays a crucial role in combustion processes, as it affects the mixing of fuel and oxidizer, influencing the efficiency and stability of flameless and catalytic combustion. A precise flow rate can optimize combustion reactions, reduce emissions, and enhance energy recovery.
