Soot formation in vitiated-air diffusion flames

Soot volume fractions have been measured using optical techniques in dual mode diffusion flames. A dual mode flame is defined as a diffusion fuel jet that burns in the wake of a premixed flame. The premixed flame combustion products simulate a vitiated-air environment: the air is preheated, rich in...
