Burning speeds, flame kernel formation and flame structure of bio-jet and JP8 fuels at high temperatures and pressures

Fundamental concepts of laminar flames have been studied both experimentally and theoretically. Topics such as, thermodynamic properties of gases at high temperatures, plasma formation in argon and air, flame kernel development, flame structure, burning speed of jet fuels such as ethanol, JP-8 and b...
