Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Study of the Effects of Side-Edge Burning in the Downward Flame Spread of Thin Solid Fuels
Bruna Comas,Toni Pujol +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between the downward flame spread rate for thermally thin samples with one or two inhibited edges is done in multiple situations, and the effects of atmospheric composition as well as the width and thickness of a cellulosic-type fuel are tested experimentally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of the channel effect on the flame spread over thin solid fuels
TL;DR: In this article, the speed of the flame front when it propagates within a narrow channel (closed cross section), within a channel with lateral walls only and through a free cross section (plain case) was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flame front speed and onset of instability in the burning of inclined thin solid fuel samples.
Bruna Comas,Toni Pujol +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on the front propagation of diffusive flames obtained from the downward burning of inclined thermally thin solid fuels and obtains an analytical expression for the flame front speed that may be understood as an upper bound of the burning spread rate in inclined samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy Balance Models of Downward Combustion of Parallel Thin Solid Fuels and Comparison to Experiments
Bruna Comas,Toni Pujol +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the flame front speed in the downward combustion of multiple parallel samples of thermally thin fuels at normal gravity and far from extinction conditions and derived an analytical approximation for the burning rate that generalizes the classical de Ris formula for those cases where radiative effects cannot be neglected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analytical expressions for the flame front speed in the downward combustion of thin solid fuels and comparison to experiments
Toni Pujol,Bruna Comas +1 more
TL;DR: Analytical expressions for the propagation speed of downward combustion fronts of thin solid fuels with a background flow initially at rest agree well with experimental data found in the literature for a large variety of cases and substantially improve the results obtained from a previous well-known analytical expression.
