Theory of Relative Smoke Yield / Zur Theorie der Rauchausbeute

In 1957 Keith and Newsome concluded from an experiment that the efficiency of the combustion process, i. e. the relative smoke yield, is independent of the distance between the incandescent zone and cigarette tip. It is shown in the present paper that the results set forth by Keith and Newsome are v...
