A model has been developed for the composition in diffusion flames. It consists of a flame sheet for the pyrolysis or consumption of fuel on the rich side of sloichiometric. Near stoichiometric the molecular and radical species are assumed to be in partial equilibrium and the burnout of CO is contro

β¦ Synopsis
This paper is concerned with the oxidation of carbon monoxide in laminar diffusion flames. Data on the carbon monoxide concentration distributions in different diffusion flame geometries are correlated with a conserved scalar called the mixture fraction. The correlation is used to determine a global carbon monoxide oxidation rate applicable for CO consumption in the lean-to-stoichiometric regions of laminar diffusion flames.

Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy has been used to map carbon monoxide concentrations and temperatures in a series of laminar ethylene/air, axisymmetric diffusion flames. As the quantity of soot increased, temperatures near the tip of the flames were observed to decrease. Carbon monoxide c
The sooting tendency of gaseous and liquid hydrocarbon fuels has been determined systematically in an axisymmetric laminar diffusion flame whose temperature was controlled by nitrogen dilution. Sooting tendency was measured by the minimum mass flow rate of fuel (FFM) at the smoke height. Results, pl
