Optical tomography has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for the three-dimensional
(3D) measurement of the dynamic characteristics of turbulent flame. Many practical …

Abstract Co-firing hydrogen (H 2) with hydrocarbon fuels is widely seen as an effective
pathway to reduce soot emissions. Nevertheless, the soot-reducing potential of H 2 can be …

Soot formation of n-heptane is experimentally and numerically studied in low-strain rate (K=
50 s− 1) counterflow soot formation (SF) flames. Flame temperatures and soot volume …

The sooting characteristics of counterflow partially-premixed flames subject to
monochromatic oscillation of strain rates were investigated. Strain rate oscillations with well …

Cofiring ammonia (NH3) and hydrocarbon fuels is a promising solution in the short and
medium terms to achieve a decarbonized energy system. However, this approach faces …

Understanding the mechanism of NOx formation and destruction is a prerequisite for the
development of effective NOx mitigation techniques in ammonia flames. Laboratory-scale …

In this work, the sensitivities of soot formation to the variations of strain rates have been
studied both experimentally and numerically in counterflow diffusion flames of fourteen C 3 …

Aromatics are molecular soot precursors, yet detailed kinetic mechanisms describing their
formation in flame environments are insufficient even for the simplest hydrocarbon fuel of …

Counterflow flames are routinely used for investigating fundamental flame and fuel
properties such as laminar flame speeds, autoignition temperature, extinction strain rate …

The study of fuel chemistry and soot inception in non-premixed combustion can be
advanced by characterizing flame configurations in which the advection and diffusion …
