Soot production in atmospheric pressure, laminar premixed flames of toluene and decalin was studied by varying the composition of the fuel/OJN2 mixture. As the O2/(N2 + 02) ratio was increased, the onset of sooting occurred at higher fuel/O2 ratios and at higher calculated adiabatic flame temperatur

Soot thresholds, in the form of flame heights and fuel mass consumption rates at the smoke points, have been measured in atmospheric pressure, laminar diffusion flames of 42 pure hydrocarbons using a wick-fed burner. The smoke point fuel consumption rates were converted into threshold soot indices,
Critical equivalence ratios (~c) have been measured as a function of temperature (1600-1880K) for premixed flames at atmospheric pressure. The five fuels studied are methane, ethane, propane, ethylene, and acetylene. The flames were stabilized on a flat flame burner and the temperatures were measure
The effect of flame structure on soot particle inception is studied by varying the mixture fraction at stoichiometry Z,, and, consequently, flame location. Z,, is varied by reassigning the nitrogen from the oxidizer to the fuel such that the flame temperature is not changed. Strain rates in the coun
