Combustion of hydrocarbon fuels with pure oxygen results in a different flue gas composition as combustion with air. Standard CFD spectral gas radiation models for air blown combustion are out of their validity range. The series of three articles provides a common spectral basis for the validation of new developed models. Part B of the series presents spectral measurements in the spectral range of 2.4-5.4 mu m of a 70 kW turbulent natural gas flame in air blown combustion and in wet and dry oxyfuel combustion. The experimentally measured intensity spectra were compared with simulated spectra based on measured gas atmospheres. The line-by-line database HITEMP2010 and the two statistical-narrow-band models EM2C and RADCAL were used for the numerical simulation. The measured spectra showed large fluctuations due to turbulence. The up to 75     «
