“…The specific implementations of preheated combustion can be traced through the Swiss roll burner, which first appeared in recirculating fluidized bed combustion, to spouted bed fluidization and then to a revival of the Swiss roll with compact combustion and thermoelectricity applications (27). It is interesting that a recent paper (Terletskii 2018) has a title and content almost the same as the extended comment from Felix and his co-author Don Hardesty (13) published 42 years earlier. The number of review articles that start with Felix's early work is remarkable, the field of excess enthalpy in combustion being another example.…”

“…In his eightieth birthday celebration address at Imperial College, Felix described how the excess energy approach could further aid the environment by burning very low calorific gases, including those coming from the rear end of intensively-fed cows. The concept of excess energy, or excess enthalpy as it came to be known, spawned what is now the enormous research field of highly preheated air combustion (Tsuji et al 2019), including mild combustion (Cavaliere & de Joannon 2004). This latter review article credits Felix with initiating the field in 1986 with Combustion in Heat Recirculating Burners chapter in Advanced combustion methods (20), but it is clear that Felix's conceptualization of the excess enthalpy approach predates that chapter by decades.…”

Felix Weinberg's teenage years coincided with World War II. He spent much of the war in Nazi concentration camps, starting with Terezin in December 1942, followed by Auschwitz in December 1943, and finally Buchenwald, from which he was liberated on 11 April 1945. He joined Imperial College, London as a research assistant in 1951 and completed his PhD by 1954. He was appointed to a personal chair as professor of combustion physics in 1967, and he stayed at Imperial for his entire career. Weinberg was distinguished for his optical and electrical studies of flames and his pioneering development of innovative combustion methods. He invented a family of powerful optical tools in combustion, using both broad spectrum and laser light sources. His work on electrical diagnostics led to applications of electric fields to control combustion and to improved understanding of ionization and soot formation. He developed novel combustion devices that incorporated distinctive heat exchangers, thereby permitting the ignition and burning of very low calorific fuel–air mixtures. All of these works had a propelling influence on the global evolution of environmentally benign combustion furnaces. His wide-ranging service to academia, industry and scientific societies included visiting scholar appointments at universities around the world, consultancies for petroleum, chemical, aerospace and defence organizations, and active membership on committees and boards of governance for many scientific and professional bodies. He was author, co-author or editor of four books and well over 200 papers in the scientific literature.

“…These sources include lean methane-air mixtures with a small content of coal dust, which may be a product of mine production. One of the effective ways to extract the combustion energy of lean methane-air mixtures containing coal dust can be the usage of recuperative type burners [1][2][3], since the efficiency of heat recovery burner significantly exceed the efficiency of the system without heat recovery [4].…”

The 2-D numerical model has been developed to simulate the combustion of lean coal-methane-air mixture in "Swiss-roll" burner and investigate the effect of coal particles content and mixture feed rate on the stable burner operation. Five homogeneous and three heterogeneous chemical reactions are considered. The Eulerian model for gas phase and the discrete particle model (Lagrangian) for particle phase taking into account the radiation are used in this study. Simulations are performed for the two turns "Swiss roll" burner with heat insulated outer wall, channel width of 6 mm and inner wall thickness of 2 mm. It is shown that the presence of coal particles in a lean methane-air mixture expands the range of stable operation of the "Swiss-roll" burner. It is found that an increase in the content of coal particles reduces the combustion time of the particles by increasing the combustion temperature, changes the shape of the reaction zone, and shifts it to the burner inlet.
