Combustion is a reactive oxidation process that releases energy bound in chemical
compounds used as fuels─ energy that is needed for power generation, transportation …

The present review attempts to comprehensively overview the progress in the field of
nanoparticle-related analytical laser and plasma spectroscopy research, focusing on the …

Micrometric spherical particles of iron in two narrow size ranges of (38–45) µm and (45–53)
µm were injected in a bench scale, transparent drop-tube furnace (DTF), electrically heated …

We present a numerical study of the combustion of single iron particles in an O 2–N 2
atmosphere. By resolving the full boundary layer, mass and heat transfer are accurately …

In flame synthesis of nanoparticles, the temperature history experienced by the nascent
particle aerosol defines the morphology, composition, and crystallinity of the resulting …

A novel matrix burner enabled the investigation of aerosol-doped laminar low-pressure
flames. Iron nitrate dissolved in 1-butanol was used as a typical model system, also found in …

In this work, we introduce a new particle mass spectrometer (AP-PMS) that is able to detect
particle-size distributions at ambient pressure using a three-stage pumping design. This …

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a ubiquitous atmospheric trace gas produced by natural and
anthropogenic sources. It can be used as a quantitative marker to help us understand the …

Following the ignition and solid-to-liquid phase transition of a fine (on the order of 10–100
µm in diameter) iron particle, the self-sustained combustion of a liquid-phase droplet of iron …

Compared to gaseous hydrocarbon flame, a metal hybrid flame has higher energy and even
has a higher flame temperature. This study explored the micro-explosion mechanisms of …
