An experimental study was made, using a double-swirl burner, of the stability of swirling-fuel-jet diffusion flames in swirling air streams. The fuels were hydrogen and methane. The primary variables studied were swirl intensities of the fuel jet and the air stream. It was found that the stability o

Laminar diffusion flames of methane were burned on small tubes. Flow velocity, temperature and composition were measured over a small region near the flame base. The central stream of methane entrained air below and through the flame, cooling the flame base to about 1500ยฐC but increasing the reactan
We examine the stability of an outwardly propagating spherical flame accounting for both hydrodynamic and thermodiffusive effects. For Lewis numbers less than a critical value Le\* < 1, disturbances of the flame front grow during the initial phase of propagation, i.e., when the radius is comparable
