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

Soot measurements were made in laminar ethylene diffusion flames for various fuel and air flow rates in a Wolfhard-Parker burner. Simultaneous light scattering and extinction measurements yielded spatially resolved particle number densities, particle size, and soot volume fraction. Laser doppler vel
A simple model has been developed for the prediction of soot volume fractions in a laminar diffusion flame. Measurements and computations of a counterftow flame have been used to evaluate the correlation between soot surface growth rates and the mixture fraction or fuel atom mass fraction. An averag
Measured soot volume fraction profiles are combined with the modeled temperatures, velocities, and mixture fractions in an axisymmetric laminar diffusion flame to derive local soot formation rates. The flame is modeled by solving transport equations for momentum, mixture fraction, and enthalpy toget
Experiments have been performed on laminar diffusion flames of mixtures of water and hydrocarbon vapor of different compositions with the mole fractions of water ranging up to about 0.9. The soot emission from the flame decreased steadily with an increase in water concentration; concurrently, there
