✦ Synopsis


Literature data on turbulent diffusion flames, such as flame length, momentum flux and mass entrainment, is interpreted through the application of dimensional analysis and a simple integral method for solving the equations of a turbulent jet. The integral theory is adapted from that of Peters and Gottgens [l] by introducing Morton's [2] entrainment hypothesis, and nondimensionalizing the equations in accord with Blake and McDonald [3]. The data are shown to be functions of a density weighted Froude number, a flame to ambient density ratio, a Shvab-Zel'dovich variable defined by the stoichiometry of the flame, and the original orientation of the jet.

Liftoff heights of turbulent diffusion flames have been modeled using the laminar diffusion flamelet concept of Peters and Williams [A/ AA J., 21:423-429 (1983)]. The strain rate of the smallest eddies is used as the stretch describing parameter, instead of the more common scalar dissipation rate. T

The boundary layer equations describing the conservation of momentum, energy and mass concentration in an axisymmetrical turbulent jet flame are solved for a Lewis number unity in the yon Mises plane. Some measurements of velocity and temperature in liquefied petroleum gas flames are reported and co
