Measurement of laminar flame speeds and flame stability analysis of tert-butanol–air mixtures at elevated pressures
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of Markstein number, flame thickness and density ratio at two sides of flame front on flame instability were analyzed combined with the schlieren photos, showing that the unstretched flame propagation speeds and laminar flame speeds of the tert-butanol-air mixtures increase with the increase of initial temperature and decrease with the increasing of initial pressure.
