Expt 4: Observations on Flame height of a Laminar Jet Diffusion Flame

Classification of flame types





Examples of diffusion flame





Applications



  • Flame inside furnaces

  • Gas turbine engines

  • Rocket combustors


Diffusion flame structure



  • Fuel and oxidizer are initially segregated before combustion.

  • They are brought into contact in a narrow region through molecular diffusion and bulk convective motion where they mix and react simultaneously.
