    Combustion phenomena : selected mechanisms of flame formation, propagation, and extinction / edited by Jozef Jarosinski, Bernard Veyssiere.

    Contributor(s): Jarosinski, Jozef | Veyssiere, BernardMaterial type: TextTextPublisher: Boca Raton : CRC Press, c2009Description: xiv, 220 p. : ill. (some col.) ; 29 cm. + 1 CD-ROM (4 3/4 in.)ISBN: 9780849384080 (alk. paper); 0849384087 (alk. paper)Subject(s): CombustionDDC classification: 541/.361 LOC classification: QD516 | .C6156 2009Online resources: Table of contents only
    Contents:
    Introduction: challenges in combustion -- Diagnostics in combustion: measurements to unravel combustion chemistry -- Flammability limits: ignition of a flammable mixture and limit flame extinction -- Influence of boundary conditions on flame propagation -- Instability phenomena during flame propagation -- Different methods of flame quenching -- Turbulent flames -- Other interesting examples of combustion and flame formation.
    Review: "Taking you through the stages of combustion, leading experts visually display, mathematically explain, and clearly theorize on important physical topics of combustion. They discuss combustion chemistry, flammability limits, spark ignition, counterflow twin-flame configuration, flame in a vortex core, edge flames, instabilities, and tulip flames. The book describes flame extinction in narrow channels, global quenching of premixed flames by turbulence, counterflow premixed flame extinction limits, the interaction of flames with fluids in rotating vessels, and turbulent flames."--Jacket.
