The effects of ozone additions to natural gas/air mixtures on emissions of NO were studied. The investigations were realized in laboratory equipment composed of an ozone generator, and a combustion chamber with a modified Mecker burner and gas composition, and flow rate and temperature measurement system. Comparisons were made between combustion with and without ozone additions. The tests were performed on 1.25 to 9.83 mg O3/dm3 (O3+N2) additions at 390 W thermal power and an excess air ratio of 0.8 to 1.4. The investigations demanded the use of synthetic air. Numerical studies of the combustion process using CHEMKIN II package were also performed. Within the experimental work a slight increase of NO concentrations with ozone concentration in air were confirmed. The numerical results are in qualitative and quantitative agreement with the experiments.
