Assessment of the shape of vertical jet fires

TL;DR: In this paper, the main geometrical features of jet fires (flame shape, length and width) were determined by analyzing infrared images from the observations of visible and infrared images, the flame boundary was defined as that corresponding to a temperature of 800 K and the ratio of flame length to diameter was found to be 7.7.

Jet flame heights, lift-off distances, and mean flame surface density for extensive ranges of fuels and flow rates

TL;DR: In this article, an extensive review and re-thinking of jet flame heights and structure, extending into the choked/supersonic regime is presented, with discussion of the limitations of previous flame height correlations.
Journal ArticleDOI

A consideration of methods of determining the radiative characteristics of jet fires

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the inherent near-field and far-field behavior of different modelling approaches and the resulting impact on the fraction of heat radiated derived from each modelling approach using incident radiation data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large scale high pressure jet fires involving natural gas and natural gas/hydrogen mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of large scale high pressure jet fires were conducted using natural gas and natural gas/hydrogen mixtures, and the flame length and the incident radiation field produced around the fire were measured.

Scalar profiles and NO formation in laminar opposed-flow partially premixed methane/air flames

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Raman scattering and laser-induced fluorescence to measure temperature, the major species (N2, O2, CH4, CO2, H2O, CO, and H2), OH, and NO in steady laminar opposed-flow partially premixed flames of methane and air.

Lift-Off Heights and Visible Lengths of Vertical Turbulent Jet Diffusion Flames in Still Air

TL;DR: In this article, the lift-off heights and visible-flame lengths of jet diffusion flames in still air have been determined for hydrogen, propane, methane and ethylene, and the results support the assumption that if the burner exit flow is choked the burner can be approximated by an equivalent convergent-divergent nozzle at whose exit the flow has expanded to ambient pressure.

Transition from momentum to buoyancy-controlled turbulent jet diffusion flames and flame height relationships

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis for the transition characteristics from momentum-to buoyancy-controlled turbulent jet diffusion flames is presented, based on dimensional arguments for the physics in turbulent diffusion flames.

Blow-Out Stability of Gaseous Jet Diffusion Flames. Part I: In Still Air

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-dimensional formula for the blowout stability limit of gaseous jet diffusion flames in still air has been found experimentally and its validity has been established over a wide range of parameters that affect the blow-out limit.

Visible length of vertical free turbulent diffusion flames

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study has been made, which together with literature results covers the practically accessible range of operation from forced convection to natural convection, and general correlations are given for predicting flame length over this range.
