Spark Heat Transfer Measurements in Flowing Gases Résumé des transferts de chaleur entre une étincelle d'allumage et des écoulements gazeux

Using a technique based on holographic interferometry, the total energy transferred from a spark to the surrounding gases was measured for a number of spark plug electrode geometries, flow velocities, gas pressures and coil charge times. A standard automotive ignition coil was used. For the combinat...
