Shore, David | Improving flare design a transition from art-form to engineering science | 2007 | Many of the day-to-day activities surrounding Flaring, at both the project design and operational stages, are vague and apparently outside the control of the Flare Engineer. Design specifications usually only cover a single case out of a multitude of possible compositions and flows. In service, flow... |

Diez, Francisco J.; Dahm, Werner J.A. | Improved prediction of buoyancy effects on flame length and combustion properties of flares | 2004 | An improved integral method is presented for determining the flame length and combustion properties of buoyant jet flames, including flares, that avoids the Morton entrainment hypothesis entirely and thereby removes the ad hoc "entrainment modeling" required in most other integral approaches. Rather... |

Lewis, Elliot-Sullivan; Hack, Richard; McDonell, Vincent | Development of a modular supplemental burner for optimization of distributed generation/combined heat and power system efficiency | 2011 | Increased interest in distributed power generation has lead to increased interest in combined heating cooling and power (CCHP). One significant issue in implementing a CCHP is that electrical loads and heating or cooling loads are rarely synchronized. Duct burners are frequently used to provide addi... |

Hong, J.; Baukal, C.; Bastianen, M.; Bellovich, J.; Leary, K. | Innovative steam-assisted flare technology | 2007 | A new steam-assisted flare has been developed which reduces or eliminates some of the potential limitations of conventional steam-assisted flares. The improved performance includes significantly reduced steam requirements (>30% reduction), elimination of two of the three steam supply lines, simplifi... |

Martin, Matthew | Comparison of empirically based calculation methods for pipe flares to computational fluid dynamics | 2007 | As available computational resources increase and the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) becomes more widely accepted wider classes of industrial scale combustion systems are being simulated and optimized using these resources. A largebody of empirically based work has already been assembled ... |

Desam, Padmabhushana R.; Smith, Philip J.; Borodai, Stainslav G.; Kumar, Seshadri | Computing flare dynamics using large eddy simulations | 2004 | Computing the dynamics of flares is motivated by the increased need for efficient and safe flaring of unwanted gases during hydrocarbon and petrochemical processing. To understand the unsteady flame shape dynamics, Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are used to study natural gas flares in the presence of ... |

Mueller, Gary R.; Agrawal, Harshit; Caico, Chris; Olivacce, Ronald | Combustion of mixtures: A modified IFC approach | 2011 | While most studies on flares have been done with single hydrocarbon fuels or binary mixtures, the reality of most industrial flares is that they see different mixtures of many gases. Over the past 5 years the International Flare Consortium (IFC) has been conducting research on just this issue. In a ... |

Chambers, Allan K.; Wootton, Tony; Moncrieff, Jan; McCready, Philip | Combustion efficiency of full scale flares measured using DIAL technology | 2004 | Flares are used in Alberta's oil and gas industry to safely treat H2S containing gas releases during emergencies, and gas well flow tests and as a means of disposing of gases that cannot be recovered economically. Despite the wide use of these flares, little data exists on the combustion efficiency ... |

Kretzschmar, Simon | Enviromix_split_phase_applying_flameless_combustion_principles_to_pyrolysis_furnaces | 2011 | As the drive towards reduced NOx emissions accelerates, the need to promote synergy between all furnace components becomes paramount. One of the most exciting methods of reducing these emissions is through the application of the principles of flameless combustion. Through high rates of flue gas reci... |

Gogolek, Peter E.G.; Hayden, A.C.S. | Efficiency of flare flames in turbulent crosswind | 2010 | Flares are used for the safe, clean and economical disposal of waste gases, whether in upstream oil production (solution gas flares), refineries, gas plants or other chemical processing facilities. Elevated flares are exposed to all the weather patterns, perhaps the most important is the crosswind. ... |

Shelil, Nasser; Bagdanavicius, Audrius; Griffiths, Anthony; Syred, Nick | Flashback analysis for hydrogen/methane mixtures for premixed swirl combustion | 2009 | The flashback problem which occurs by using lean premixed combustion in gas turbines is considered. Flashback simulation studies using CFD modelling package are performed for a wide range of hydrogen/methane (H2/CH4) blends combusted by air using a swirl burner under premixed conditions. The laminar... |

G. | High fidelity modeling of flare combustion and emission detection | 2011-08-17 | The combustion of hydrocarbons by industrial flares emits greenhouse gases into the atmosphere along with trace amounts of ozone-forming highly-reactive volatile organic compounds and human carcinogens. Continuous and autonomous monitoring of flare emission is challenging due to low species concentr... |

Pohl, John; Gogolek, Peter E.G.; Seebold, James G.; Schwartz, Robert | Fuel composition effect on flare flame inefficiency | 2004 | The effects of fuel composition on the performance of flare flames have long been known. Possibly the first performance indicator was the tendency of a fuel to smoke. Various fuel characteristics such as average molecular weight and carbon-to-hydrogen ratio were advanced to guide the design of early... |
