A low‐pollution single‐tube microgas turbine combustor using different gas fuels was studied. The combustion performance of two kinds of landfill gas and natural gas was tested in a single‐head combustor. The effects of fuel nozzle position, and the fuel distribution ratio between pilot and main combustion stage on pollutant emission were investigated under rated load condition. The flow field, temperature field, and pollutant generation characteristics with different fuel nozzle diameters and nozzle positions were analyzed by numerical simulation. The results show that: the combustor can form an obvious central recirculation zone, which is convenient for ignition and stable flame propagation; in the case of limited premixed length, the influence of fuel nozzle position on fuel–air mixing uniformity is less obvious than that of fuel nozzle diameter. The fuel–air mixing uniformity plays a decisive role in the temperature field and the generation of pollutants in the combustor. The combustor has good pollutant emission characteristics, and the NOx emission can be reduced to about 10 ppmv (15% O2 concentration) under the appropriate combination of fuel nozzle diameter and position, which provides a reference for the further optimization of low‐emission combustor.
