Abstract
An exit gas control apparatus for flame stabilization and performance tuning of a starved-air combustor includes a first air conduit communicating with the combustion chamber near the fuel inlet and a second conduit communicating with the combustion chamber near the residue outlet. A damper is provided to proportion the discharge of combustion gases entirely through the first conduit, entirely through the second conduit, or proportionately through the first conduit and the second conduit to enable the starved-air combustor to operate in full countercurrent, full co-current, or partial co-current and countercurrent modes, respectively.
