Subject(s): Genre/Form: DDC classification:
  • 541.361 GLA 22
Contents:
Machine generated contents note: Chapter 1: Chemical Thermodynamics and Flame Temperatures Chapter 2: Chemical Kinetics Chapter 3: Explosive and General Oxidative Characteristics of Fuels Chapter 4: Flame Phenomena in Premixed Combustible Gases Chapter 5: Detonation Chapter 6: Diffusion Flames Chapter 7: Ignition Chapter 8: Environmental Combustion Considerations Chapter 9: Combustion of Nonvolatile Fuels Chapter 10: New Concepts and Technologies Appendices.
Summary: "The parameters essential for the evaluation of combustion systems are the equilibrium product temperature and composition. If all the heat evolved in the reaction is employed solely to raise the product temperature, this temperature is called the adiabatic flame temperature. Because of the importance of the temperature and gas composition in combustion considerations, it is appropriate to review those aspects of the field of chemical thermodynamics that deal with these subjects"--
