ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for recirculating flue gas in either a vertical or a horizontal pulse combustor which is dedicated to deliberate one-stage pulse combustion. At least one combustion chamber wall defines a mixing region and a combustion chamber which is adjacent the mixing region. A fuel inlet conduit is used to supply fuel into the mixing region and an air inlet conduit is used to supply air into the mixing region and thereby form an air/fuel mixture within the mixing region. Air valves are in communication with the fuel inlet conduit and the air inlet conduit. An ignition source is positioned within with mixing region for igniting the air/fuel mixture and beginning the pulse combustion process. An exhaust system removes flue gas containing products of pulse combustion. A portion of the flue gas produced during pulse combustion is then recirculated into the mixing region, air inlet, and/or an air decoupler.
