An adequate treatment of thermal radiation heat transfer is essential to a mathematical
model of the combustion process or to a design of a combustion system. This paper reviews …

Most combustion systems use dense sprays of liquid fuels or pulverized fuel suspension for
combustion. Thus the interactive processes between the drops/particles play a crucial role in …

This is an easily-accessible two-volume encyclopedia summarizing all the articles in the
main volumes Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Fifth Edition organized …

The emission of soot and thermal radiation by free turbulent diffusion flames of CO, H 2, CH
4, C 2 H 6, C 3 H 8, C 2 H 4, and C 2 H 2 was studied over a range spanning the transition …

This study deals with the application of hydrogen as a fuel with focus on the improvement of
radiation from its flame. Combustion data for hydrogen have been compared with those of …

The combustion designer would like to be able to select operating conditions that give
maximum efficiency while minimizing the emission of pollutants. In doing this, the designer …

This work investigates the electric field effect on gas temperature, radiative heat flux and
flame speed of premixed CH 4/O 2/N 2 flames in order to gain a better insight into the …

The possibility of heating flame-front electrons with microwaves in a combusting air-fuel
mixture in the internal combustion engine is considered by means of a model problem. In the …

Numerical computations are made of axisymmetric laminar hydrogen diffusion flames,
focusing on the unsteady behavior under microgravity and the effects of magnetic field. In …

In-cylinder sampling appears to be the only available means for obtaining detailed
information of the diesel combustion process. This information is necessary to understand …
