Properties of Laminar Premixed CO/H/Air Flames at Various Pressures
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of positive ame stretch on the laminar burning velocities of CO/H2/air mixtures were studied both experimentally and computationally for outwardly propagating spherical ames having concentrations of hydrogen in the fuel mixture of 3 − 50% by volume, fuel-equivalence ratios of 0.6 − 5.0, and pressures at 0.5 − 4.0 atm.

On the Performance and Operability of GE’s Dry Low NOx Combustors utilizing Exhaust Gas Recirculation for PostCombustion Carbon Capture
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental work performed at General Electric Global Research Center in order to better understand the risks of utilizing exhaust gas recirculation in combination with dry low NOx (DLN) combustors is presented.

The role of unsteadiness in direct initiation of gaseous detonations
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical model for the direct initiation of gaseous detonations by a blast wave is presented for stable or weakly unstable mixtures, and local analysis of the one-dimensional unsteady reaction zone structure identifies a competition between heat release, wave front curvature and unsteadiness.

Understanding NOx formation in nonpremixed flames: Experiments and modeling
TL;DR: Experimental studies and models of NOx formation in simple non-premixed flames at atmospheric pressure are reviewed in this paper, where the failure of a simple leading-order scaling is investigated and interpreted in terms of the various interrelated parameters affecting NO formation: the relative importance of various NO-forming chemical pathways, departures of O-atom concentrations and temperatures from their equilibrium values, flame strain, and flame radiation.
