The current paper illustrates the numerical study of the global combustion parameters. It mainly focused on the computational analysis that investigated the non-premixed combustion in the cylindrical burner. Therefore, we selected many fuels to supply the burner like Algerian biogas, CH4, C3H8, H2, natural gas, and diesel to compare their aerothermochemical characteristics variables. At first, we applied the numerical methods that confirm the solution convergence like combustion models and grid selection. After that, we resolved the aerothermochemical set equations of combustion using the coupled k-ɛɛ turbulent dynamic model with the probability density function approach. These models are also used to surmount the closer in the set of combustion equations too. Moreover, we integrated the pollutant computation model based on the chemical reactions of NO production. Thus, we evaluated each considered fuel’s NO emission during all combustion fuels cases. Accordingly, the results show that Algerian biogas and hydrogen have special characteristics compared to other cases of fuels. The most prominent characteristics are: the high level of the mixture and burn relative to other fuels, their low pollutants emissions (CO and NO), and the proportional relationship between the OH and NO production. Consequently, biogas and H2 conserve the impact on energy and the environment.
