Study of the Impact of LPG Composition on the Blowoff and Flashback Limits of a Premixed Flame in a Swirl Burner [PDF]
Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is considered one of the gases widely used in many industrial and residential sectors. Still, due to its different compositions, mainly propane (C3H8) and butane (C4H10), it can have other combustion characteristics.

Effect of thermal expansion on the stability of two-reactant flames [PDF]
The full problem of flame stability for the two-reactant model, which takes into account thermal expansion effects for all disturbance wave lengths, is examined. It is found that the stability problem for the class of two-reactant flames is equivalent to
