Mechanisms and enhancement of flame stabilization. Annual report, January 15, 1992--January 14, 1993
During the reporting period, useful contributions have been made in understanding the structure of laminar premixed and diffusion flames, with emphasis on the influence of aerodynamics and chemical kinetics. These contributions include (1) derivation of the missing closure condition for the activation energy asymptotic analysis of premixed flames, (2) identification of a dual extinction mode for radiation-affected flames, (3) formulation of a unified theory of fundamental flammability limits, and (4) demonstration that flame stabilization can be achieved in the absence of heat loss. These investigations have been conducted via experimental, analytical and computational approaches, with strong coupling between the individual components.
