Experimental Studies of Hydrocarbon Flame Phenomena: Enabling Combustion Control

Abstract

This report summarizes the research accomplished in the project "Experimental Studies of Hydrocarbon Flame Phenomena: Enabling Combustion Control". The main areas of activity are: a) electrostatic flame and flow control, b) flame hysteresis in heated coflows, c) flame lifting and splitting in heated jet flows and d) flame dynamics in vitiated and heated coflows. The project supported supplies for the experimental effort, graduate students, summer faculty support and conference and research travel.
