Abstract

An experimental investigation of freely propagating swirl stabilized flames is presented here. Acoustic measurements with an intensity probe show the global relations between the combustion process and the resulting noise. Both, the total acoustic power and the spectral character were evaluated. It is found that combustion noise in general is broad band in a frequency range of 100 to 500 Hz with no dominant frequency for burners in the 100 kW class. An exponential decay of the acoustic intensity above a certain peak frequency with an exponent of-8/3 has been found.
