摘要

天然气掺氨燃烧技术凭借在降低碳排放方面的巨大潜力，已成为全球研究焦点。氨在燃烧过程中存在着火困难、火焰传播速度缓慢以及易被吹熄等诸多问题，而天然气的掺入能够显著改善这些问题，也推动了氨燃料的广泛应用，为清洁能源的开发开辟了新途径。首先从技术可行性与经济可行性方面对天然气掺氨燃烧技术的应用潜力进行评估，分析其在能源转型进程中的积极意义。接着，借助反应动力学的研究成果，分析了氨与天然气掺混燃烧的化学反应机理。在此基础上，从实验研究、数值模拟以及低氮稳燃控制策略等方面，综述了国内外在该领域的最新研究动态，指出目前不同机理模型在模拟以及实验预测普适性方面仍存在显著差异，未来需结合跨尺度模拟发展能够兼顾精度与效率以及适应性更强的氨燃烧预测模型。最后，归纳了天然气掺氨燃烧技术在实际应用中遭遇的挑战，并指出未来的研究方向，旨在为这一技术的深入发展提供理论依据与实践指引。

Abstract

The technology of co-firing ammonia with natural gas has become a global research focus due to its significant potential in reducing carbon emissions. During the combustion process

ammonia faces challenges such as difficulty in ignition

slow flame propagation speed

and susceptibility to blow-off. The addition of natural gas can significantly improve these combustion characteristics

thereby promoting the widespread application of ammonia fuel and opening up new avenues for the development of clean energy. Firstly

the application potential of natural gas-ammonia co-firing technology is evaluated from the perspectives of technical and economic feasibility

and its positive significance in the energy transition process is analyzed. Then

drawing on research findings at the reaction kinetics level

the chemical reaction mechanisms of ammonia and natural gas co-firing are elucidated. On this basis

the latest domestic and international research progress in this field is reviewed

covering experimental studies

numerical simulations

and low-NOx stable combustion control strategies. It is pointed out that significant discrepancies still exist among different mechanism models in terms of simulation accuracy and experimental prediction universality. Future research needs to combine multi-scale simulations to develop more adaptable ammonia combustion prediction models that can balance accuracy and efficiency. Finally

the challenges encountered in the practical application of natural gas-ammonia co-firing technology are summarized

and future research directions are proposed

aiming to provide a theoretical basis and practical guidance for the in-depth development of this technology.
