Flame standoff distance

If the reactive gas produced at the burning surface of an energetic material reacts slowly in the gas phase and generates a luminous flame, the distance Lg between the burning surface and the luminous flame front is said to be the flame standoff distance. In the gas phase shown in Fig. 3-8, the temperature gradient appears to be small and the temperature increases relatively slowly. In this case, heat flux by conduction, the first term in Eq. (3.41), is neglected. Similarly, the rate of mass diffusion, the first term is Eq. (3.42), is assumed to be small compared with the rate of mass convection, the second term in Eq. (3.42). Thus, one gets [Pg.52]

The reaction rate for an m th order reaction is given by (ignoring the temperature dependence of pg) [Pg.53]

The mass flow continuity relation between the gas phase and solid is [Pg.53]

The temperature gradient, dT/dx, in the gas phase is approximately equal to ATg/Lg, where ATg is the temperature change across the gas phase zone. Thus, the flame standoff distance Lg is represented by [Pg.53]

Since the final gas phase reaction to produce a luminous flame zone is initiated by the reaction in the dark zone, the reaction time is determined from the dark zone length Ld, i.e., the flame standoff distance. Figures 6-7 and 6-8 show the results for the dark zone length and dark zone temperature, Td, of the propellants listed in Table 6-1, respectively. The luminous flame front approaches the burning surface and the dark zone length decreases as pressure increases for the propellants. There is no clear difference between the propellants with respect to the dark zone length and the pressure exponent of the dark zone, d = n - m, defined in Eq. (3.70) is determined to be approximately -2.0. The overall order of the reaction in the dark zone is also determined to be m= 2.6 for all the propellants. However, the dark zone temperature increases as pressure increases at constant (N02) and also increases as (N02) increases at constant pressure. [Pg.128]

The flame structures of the noncatalyzed and catalyzed propellants shown in Fig. 6-25 are similar except for the flame standoff distance, i.e., dark zone length, as shown in Fig. 6-26. The dark zone lengths of both propellants decrease with increas-... [Pg.147]

The combustion wave structure at 100 atm is shown in Figs. 13 and 14, exhibiting a close similarity to that at 1 atm except for the shorter flame-standoff distance (6 vs. 600 pm) and molten-layer thickness (2.1 vs. 66 pm). [Pg.320]
