Journal ArticleDOI
Ignition and combustion of boron particles
Chun-Liang Yeh,Kenneth K. Kuo +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive survey of the previous experimental work, theoretical models, and chemical kinetics studies of single boron particles is presented, along with up-to-date research findings which represent two major research needs strongly recommended by previous researchers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ignition and Combustion of Boron Particles and Clouds
TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined the Steins an-Boltzmann constant as the product of the density-diffusivity product of boron and boric oxide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidation kinetics and combustion of boron particles with modified surface
TL;DR: In this article, a commercial 95% pure boron powder is modified using acetonitrile to dissolve the oxidized and hydrated surface layers of the powder, and the powder is then injected into a pre-mixed air-acetylene flame and their optical emission is measured using optical emission spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
A physical and chemical interpretation of boron particle combustion
TL;DR: In this paper, the combustion of boron is considered from both physical and chemical points of view, and the overall combustion process is separated into an ignition phase, during which the particle is covered by a layer of BORON oxide, and a clean particle burning phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-phase model for ignition and combustion of boron particles
TL;DR: In this article, a time-dependent spherosymmetric numerical model was developed for simulating the sequential ignition and combustion of an isolated boron particle in chemically reacting gases.

Combustion of Boron Particles at Atmospheric Pressure
Andrej Mačeic,J. McKENZIE Semple +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, single particles of pure crystalline boron were injected into streams of hot oxidizing gases, generated by a gas-burner, at atmospheric pressure, and the panicle combustion process was described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental study of the combustion of single aluminum particles in O2/Ar
R.P. Wilson,F.A. Williams +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the burning-rate law of aluminum in a controlled O2/Ar environment was fitted to the present data by nonlinear, least-squares analysis, and the results indicated that the burning rate is constant throughout the history of a given droplet.
Combustion of elemental boron
Claude P. Talley,Harry P. Woods +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a static system was used to demonstrate the self-sustaining combustion of boron rods in fluorine and chlorine trifluoride gases, at a temperature considerably less than the steady-state combustion temperature for BORON in oxygen (approximately 1600 versus 2400 K).
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-Temperature Thermal Conductivity of Boron
J. C. Thompson,W. J. McDonald +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal conductivity of a single crystal of boron has been measured between 4 and 300°K, and an exponential temperature dependence, exp Θ/aT, was observed in the neighborhood of 150°K.
