Abstract: Micro burner is the fundamental element of a micro energy power system. The performance, output power, and efficiency of the system are directly involved by the combustion stability, efficiency, and temperature distribution of the exterior wall. Owing to the small combustion space of the micro burner and the resident short time of the premixed fuel/air, the fuel is difficult to burn completely, resulting in poor burning efficiency and flame stability. Therefore, the study of micro burner technology is the focus of current research to improve combustion performance. This article introduces the micro power system, micro combustion technology, and combustion status and characteristics, focusing on four kinds of micro combustion technology. The purpose is tantamount to fully understand the current status of micro combustion technology and compare the characteristics of different combustion technologies. For improving output power and efficiency of the power system, the combustion stability and performance are enhanced, which provides theoretical support for the effective realization of micro scale combustion and application.
