Burning velocity and the influence of flame stretch [PDF]

, 1991
A new technique is presented for determining burning velocities and stretch effects in laminar flames, and applied to a range of fuel/air mixtures. The speeds of expanding spherical flames, measured by high-speed schlieren cine-photography, are shown to

Airborne hydrogen cyanide measurements using a chemical ionisation mass spectrometer for the plume identification of biomass burning forest fires [PDF]

, 2013
A chemical ionisation mass spectrometer (CIMS) was developed for measuring hydrogen cyanide (HCN) from biomass burning events in Canada using I− reagent ions on board the FAAM BAe-146 research aircraft during the BORTAS campaign in 2011.

Droplet Burning of JP-8/Silica Gels [PDF]

, 2010
For future high performance rocket launchers, gelled propellants have the potential to replace conventional solid and liquid fuels by combining the individual advantages of both systems and neglecting the most disadvantages at the same time.

Effect of antioxidant therapy on collagen synthesis in corrosive esophageal burns

Pediatric Surgery International, 2002
To investigate the efficacy of antioxidant therapy on collagen synthesis in corrosive esophageal burns, 110 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five groups of 22 animals each. A standard esophageal caustic burn was produced by 1 ml of 10% sodium hydroxide solution for the rats in groups B to E; group A was instilled only with 0.9% saline after ...

Characterization of Phenolic Compounds in Pinus laricio Needles and Their Responses to Prescribed Burnings

Molecules, 2007
Fire is a dominant ecological factor in Mediterranean-type ecosystems. Management strategies include prescribed (controlled) burning, which has been used in the management of several species, such as Pinus nigra ssp laricio var. Corsicana, a pine endemic

Synthesis of Al-26 in explosive hydrogen burning

The Astrophysical Journal, 1980
The possibility of Al-26 synthesis during the explosive processing of hydrogen-rich material in the outer layers of a supernova or in nova envelopes is investigated. It is found that in the peak temperature range of 1-3 x 10 to the 8th deg K and for expansion time scales of the order of 1-1000 s, values of (Al-26)/(Al-27) as high as 0.1-1 can be ...

Burning Velocity for the Compacted Mixture of a Ti-Al System, Just after Spontaneous Ignition in the SHS Process

Journal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2012
Burning velocity just after spontaneous ignition has been examined not only experimentally but also theoretically, as related to a Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis (SHS) process, for a Ti-Al system.

Burning in banksia woodlands: How does the fire-free period influence reptile communities? [PDF]

, 2012
Fire is an important management tool for both hazard reduction burning and maintenance of biodiversity. The impact of time since last fire on fauna is an important factor to understand as land managers often aim for prescribed burning regimes with ...
