We manipulated oxy-fuel combustion of methane in small scales to study the characteristics of micro counterflow diffusion flames under the gravity field. Methane-oxygen diffusion flames in counterflow burners were observed, where the burner distance was less than or equal to 1.0 mm and the apparent equivalence ratio was unity. The flame thickness and flame diameter were obtained as functions of the burner distance and gas flow rate. The minimum burner distance for the observation of flames became smaller as the gas flow rate increased. We obtained smaller values of the minimum burner distance when methane flowed out from the upper burner. The flame thickness and flame diameter decreased as the burner distance became smaller. In addition, the flame thickness and flame diameter had slightly larger values in the upper-methane case.
