Exploring Soot Particle Concentration and Emissivity by Transient Thermocouples Measurements in Laminar Partially Premixed Coflow Flames [PDF]
Soot formation in combustion represents a complex phenomenon that strongly depends on several factors such as pressure, temperature, fuel chemical composition, and the extent of premixing. The effect of partial premixing on soot formation is of relevance

The concentration of soot as a factor of change in the air quality [PDF]
Introduction: Soot usually occurs as a result of incomplete combustion of fuels containing carbon (fossil fuels - wood, coal). Air pollution is one of the most serious environmental threats to the urban population, which has harmful effects on human ...

Effects of Oxygen Concentration on Soot Formation in Ethylene and Ethane Fuel Laminar Diffusion Flames [PDF]
In studying the effects of oxygen concentration and molecular structure on the morphologies of the soot particles produced by hydrocarbon fuels, ethylene and ethane were chosen as experimental fuels. With a Gülde laminar coaxial diffusion flame device, a
