โœฆ Synopsis

Experimental results are reported on the burning of free droplets of heptane and deeane in oxygen-nitrogen atmospheres. The burning occurred in a freely falling chamber providing 2.2 see of negligible gravity. Enhanced burning rates and a phenomenon of flash extinction were observed and attributed to thermophoretic buildup and ignition of carbon near the droplet surface.

The steady-state burning of a single liquid monopropellant droplet in an infinite inert atmosphere is considered in detail, including allowances for thermal conduction, diffusion and chemical kinetic effects. Simplified forms of the governing equations are developed, and theoretical predictions comp

Single fiber-supported slurry droplets composed of boron in JP-10 were ignited and burned in room-temperature air. Initial droplet diameters ranged from 1.2 to 3.0 mm and initial boron weight fractions f from 0 to 0.7. It was observed that although the liquid fuel apparently burns completely the bor

The effects of interaction of two burning identical droplets are investigated. Using the formulation of Shvab-Zeldovich. one can calculate the burning rate and the form of flame surface in two droplets case. It is known that the interaction of two droplets decreases the burning rate comparing to a s
