Dimethyl ether (DME) is an ultra-clean fuel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CSIR-NCL has developed nation\u2019s first kind of DME pilot plant with 20-24Kg\/day capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conventional LPG burner is not suitable for DME combustion as DME density is different than LPG. To address this issue, CSIR- NCL\u2019s \u201cADITI URJA SANCH\u201d has come up with a helpful, innovative setup. The new Burner is fully designed and fabricated by NCL for DME, DME -LPG blended mixtures and LPG combustion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salient features of newly designed Burner are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • The new design is efficient for both DME and the blend of DME and LPG.<\/li>
  • Novel design and flexible air ingress.<\/li>
  • The new nozzle design allows optimum oxygen ingress for combustion<\/li>
  • The angles at which nozzles are placed maximize the heat transfer area across the utensils.<\/li>
  • Optimum flame velocity can be obtained.<\/li>
  • The length of the flame (high, low, and medium) can be adjusted by altering the oxygen ingress.<\/li>
  • The experiment shows that it increases the heat transfer rate as well.<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
