In this work, new test burner concepts for the non-catalytic partial oxidation of natural gas are evaluated using numerical modeling. The 3D CFD model for reactive flow calculations incorporates a detailed reaction mechanism containing 28 species and 112 reactions, and is extensively validated against data obtained in the semi-industrial test facility HP POX in Freiberg. The validation cases operate at 61 bar(a) and outlet temperatures of approximately 1688 K. The CFD models demonstrate that the optimized burner concepts result in a significantly higher natural gas conversion rate, which allows for a more compact reactor design or, alternatively, for a higher throughput in existing industrial facilities. In addition, the final burner concepts are tested experimentally. Optical measurements demonstrate that the CFD model is capable of reproducing the complex 3D flame structures and reliably predicting the overall performance of the reactor.
