An Investigation of Ethylene Laminar Diffusion Flames at Sub-atmospheric Pressures to Simulate Microgravity

Ethylene/Air diffusion flames were studied at sub and super-atmospheric pressures to simulate a microgravity environment at fuel flow rates of 0.482 mg/s and 1.16 mg/s. Flame properties including flame dimensions, soot formation, temperature, and attachment mechanisms were investigated. Overall, lum...
