Experimental systems and soot formation

For premixed fuel-air systems, results are reported in various terms that can be related to a critical equivalence ratio at which the onset of some yellow flame luminosity is observed. Premixed combustion studies have been performed primarily with Bunsen-type flames [52, 53], flat flames [54], and stirred reactors [55, 56], The earliest work [57, 58] on diffusion flames dealt mainly with axisymmetric coflow (coannular) systems in which the smoke height or the volumetric or mass flow rate of the fuel at this height was used as the correlating parameter. The smoke height is considered to be a measure of the fuel s particulate formation and growth rates but is controlled by the soot particle bumup. The specific references to this early work and that mentioned in subsequent paragraphs can be found in Ref. [50], [Pg.460]

Work on coflowing Wolfhard-Parker burners [59,60], axisymmetric inverse coflowing configurations (oxidizer is the central jet) [61, 62], and counterflow [Pg.460]

Flame turbulence should not affect soot formation processes under premixed combustion conditions, and the near correspondence of the results from Bunsen flames [52] and stirred reactors [55] tends to support this contention. [Pg.462]
