Abstract The relationship between air ratio fluctuations and NOx formation was investigated in a combustor with a multi-port burner. By using a laser absorption method, the air ratio fluctuations were measured under two mixing conditions, perfect and partial mixing. The fluctuations of the burned gas temperature were also measured by a fine thermocouple. From the measured fluctuations of the air ratio, the probability density distribution of the air ratio was obtained to quantify the degree of fluctuation. Using the model proposed by Heywood et aI., the effect of the air ratio fluctuations on NOx formation was investigated by numerical simulation. The simulation results using the measured probability density distribution of the air ratio give a reasonable prediction of the effect of the fluctuations on NOx formation.
