This report presents the findings from the Round Robin II testing, focusing on how the configuration of the burner tab and intake duct influences calibration outcomes. Key parameters evaluated include air intake velocity, thermocouple rake temperatures, and heat flux. The study identifies variations caused by different burner air turbulators and recommends setups to achieve optimal calibration results. The results show that burner configuration significantly impacts calibration speed and efficiency compared to duct design, highlighting the importance of selecting appropriate burner arrangements.
