An Experimental Study of Pool Fire Characteristics under the Effects of Cross Winds and Baffles
Fire, 2023 The pool fires that occur behind obstructions in a ventilated environment are very different from other wind-blown pool fires. The pool fire formed by fuel leakage in an engine nacelle is a typical example of a pool fire influenced by cross winds and ...

Turbulent Chemical Diffusion in Convectively Bounded Carbon Flames [PDF]
, 2016 It has been proposed that mixing induced by convective overshoot can disrupt the inward propagation of carbon deflagrations in super-asymptotic giant branch stars.

Acoustic power measurements of oscillating flames [PDF]
, 1981 The acoustic power of an oscillating flame is measured. A turbulent premixed propane/air flame is situated near a pressure antinode of a standing wave in a laboratory combustion chamber. This standing wave is generated by a piston.

Effect of CO2 Dilution on the Structure and Emissions from Turbulent, Non-premixed Methane-Air Jet Flames [PDF]
, 2017 This investigation gives a comparison of the variation of temperature and gas compositions in lifted, turbulent non-premixed methane–air jet flames firing vertically into still air with different carbon dioxide diluent concentrations in the fuel jet. The

Research on the Combustion Characteristics of Coal Piles and the Fire Risks of Closed Coal Bunkers
Fire, 2023 Closed coal bunkers emerged as a novel form of coal storage for coal-fired power stations. Nevertheless, heat builds continually in the storage process because of the constant oxidation of coal and combined with the impact of a confined coal bunker ...

From fire whirls to blue whirls and combustion with reduced pollution. [PDF]
, 2016 Fire whirls are powerful, spinning disasters for people and surroundings when they occur in large urban and wildland fires. Whereas fire whirls have been studied for fire-safety applications, previous research has yet to harness their potential burning ...

Combined effects of width and moisture content on upward flame spread over cotton fabrics
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2019 Present work experimentally investigates the combined effects of width and moisture on the upward flame characteristics over cotton fabrics, using 0.245 mm thick and 1500 mm tall samples with 5 different widths (40 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm) and 5

Calculation of the flame size from burning liquid pools [PDF]
, 2016 The calculation of the consequences associated with a pool fire consists in a stepwise procedure where a number of parameters must be characterized, which depend on the geometrical size and shape of the flame. A number of calculation models exists in the

On the Use of Semi-empirical Flame Models for Spreading Chaparral Crown Fire
Frontiers in Mechanical Engineering, 2019 Flame geometry plays a key role in shaping fire behavior as it can influence flame spread, radiative heat transfer and fire intensity. For wildland fire, thorough characterizations of flame geometry can help advance the derivation of comprehensive models
