Journal ArticleDOI
High-pressure laminar flame speeds and kinetic modeling of carbon monoxide/hydrogen combustion
TL;DR: In this article, a kinetic mechanism based on recently published reaction rate constants is presented to model these measured laminar flame speeds as well as a limited set of other experimental data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular instabilities of expanding hydrogen/propane spherical flames at elevated pressures: theory and experiment
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental and theoretical investigation of the onset of cellular instabilities on spherically expanding flames in mixtures of hydrogen and propane in air at elevated pressures was conducted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental determination of counterflow ignition temperatures and laminar flame speeds of C2–C3 hydrocarbons at atmospheric and elevated pressures
TL;DR: In this article, experimental data were acquired for: (1) the ignition temperatures of nitrogen-diluted ethylene and propylene by counterflowing heated air for various strain rates and system pressures up to 7 ǫ atm.
Journal ArticleDOI
On transition to cellularity in expanding spherical flames
TL;DR: In this article, the instant of transition to cellularity of centrally ignited, outwardly propagating spherical flames in a reactive environment of fuelxoxidizer mixture, at atmospheric and elevated pressures, was experimentally determined using high-speed schlieren imaging and subsequently interpreted on the basis of hydrodynamic and diffusional-thermal instabilities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Critical radius for sustained propagation of spark-ignited spherical flames
TL;DR: In this article, the requirements for sustained propagation of spark-ignited hydrogen-air and butane-air flames at atmospheric and elevated pressures were investigated, and it was shown that sustained propagation is always possible for mixtures whose Lewis number is less than unity, as long as a flame can be initially established.
