β¦ Synopsis
The dependence o] the burning velocity of carbon monoMde-air mixtures on small admixed quantities of hydrogen, hydrogen compounds and deuterium has been measured. It was found with carbon monoxide-hydrogen mixtures that the square of burning velocity equals the sum of the square of the burning velocity of pure carbon monoxide and a term proportional to the hydrogen content. With added hydrogen compounds or deuterium a similar relation is valid.

The source of the continuum from flames containing carbon monoxide and oxygen has been investigated by measuring both the emission intensity and [OH] in the flame gases from rich carbon monoxide-hydrogen-air flames. The concentrations of carbon monoxide are calculated from the water gas equilibrium
An apparatus is described by which the burning velocity of gas air mixtures can be measured with an accuracy of about five per cent. The apparatus has been used for measuring the burning velocity of hydrogen-air mixtures and mixtures of methane, ethane, propane, n-butane, acetylene, ethylene, propyl
