Premixed combustion of lean methane–air in an artificial porous media burner with staggered alumina cylinders was experimentally and numerically performed. Numerical simulations were conducted at gas mixture velocities of 0.43–0.86 m/s and equivalence ratios of 0.162 and 0.243, respectively. Through comparison with experimental results, temperature distribution, peak temperature and flame propagation velocity are analyzed and discussed in detail. The numerical calculated temperature profile over the axis of the combustor coincided well with test data in the post-flame zone, however a certain deviation was found in the preheated zone. A two-dimensional flame shape was observed and the flame thickness was the size of cylinder diameter. The peak temperature increased with the gas mixture inlet velocity at the certain equivalence ratio, and its peak value was about 1.8–2.16 times higher than the adiabatic combustion temperature under the desired equivalence ratio, which indicates that super-adiabatic combustion was the case for all the numerical simulations. The flame propagating velocity had a positive correlation with the gas mixture inlet velocity.
