    Abstract: A combustion system includes a perforated flame holder, a preheating fuel distributor, a main fuel distributor, an oxidant source, an array of sensors, and a controller. The oxidant source outputs an oxidant. The preheating fuel distributor supports a preheating flame configured to preheat the perforated flame holder by outputting a preheating fuel when the combustion system is in a preheating state. The main fuel source outputs a main fuel in the standard operating state. The perforated flame holder is configured to support a combustion reaction of the main fuel and the oxidant in the standard operating state. The sensors are configured to sense parameters of the preheating flame and the perforated flame holder and to output sensor signals to the controller. The controller executes software instructions that include adjusting the flow of the main fuel, the preheating fuel, and the oxidant responsive to the sensor signals.

    Abstract: A combustion system includes a flame holder with a plurality of perforations extending through between first and second faces of the flame holder. A main fuel nozzle is configured to emit a fuel stream toward the first face of the flame holder and support a combustion reaction substantially between the first and second faces. One or more pilot nozzles are positioned over the second face of the flame holder and configured to emit pilot fuel streams along respective pilot axes lying parallel to the second face. During periods in which the combustion reaction is unintentionally extinguished, pilot flames supported by the one or more pilot nozzles heat respective portions of the flame holder.

    Abstract: A combustion system includes a perforated flame holder and a preheating flame holder. During a preheating state, a preheating fuel nozzle outputs a preheating fuel stream onto the preheating flame holder and the preheating flame holder holds a preheating flame supported by the preheating fuel. The preheating flame heats the perforated flame holder to a threshold temperature. After the perforated flame holder has reached the threshold temperature, a fuel nozzle outputs a plurality of fuel streams including a fuel toward the perforated flame holder with a trajectory selected to entrain an oxidant with the fuel streams. The perforated flame holder supports a combustion reaction of the fuel and the oxidant.

    Abstract: A combustion system includes a perforated flame holder, a fuel nozzle configured to output fuel toward the perforated flame holder, and a plasma ignition device configured to output a plasma during a preheating state of the combustion system and to cease outputting the plasma to transition from the preheating state to the standard operating state. In the preheating state the plasma ignition device causes a preheating flame of the fuel stream at a position between the fuel nozzle and the perforated flame holder. In the standard operating condition, the plasma is not present and the fuel stream impinges on the perforated flame holder. The perforated flame holder supports a combustion reaction of the fuel stream within the perforated flame holder when in the standard operating state.

    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein include flame holders that may provide recirculated fuel flow therethrough, combustion systems that include such flame holders, and related methods. A fuel and/or fuel-oxidant mixture may pass through one or more openings in the flame holder and, after combustion, the resulting flame may be held at or near a surface of the flame holder including in the one or more openings. Generally, the configuration of the flame holders disclosed herein (e.g., the one or more openings of the flame holders) may recirculate or regulate (e.g., decrease and/or increase) the flow of fuel and/or oxidant therethrough, at least limit flame flashback, improve fuel/oxidant mixing, increase flame stability, regulate where the flame is located in the flame holder, improve the operational stability window of the combustion system, or combinations of the foregoing.

    Abstract: A method for controlling a combustion reaction includes introducing fuel and oxidizer into a combustion volume at a ratio that is outside a range defined by an upper flammability or stability limit and a lower flammability or stability limit of the fuel, and producing a modified range defined by a modified upper flammability or stability limit and a modified lower flammability or stability limit of the fuel, by applying an electric field across a flame supported by the fuel and oxidizer, the ratio falling within the modified range.
