  2. Adiabatic flame temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_flame_temperature

    A ratio of 1 corresponds to the stoichiometric ratio Constant volume flame temperature of a number of fuels, with air. If we make the assumption that combustion goes to completion (i.e. forming only CO 2 and H 2 O), we can calculate the adiabatic flame temperature by hand either at stoichiometric conditions or lean of stoichiometry (excess air ...

  3. Adiabatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_process

    For example, the adiabatic flame temperature uses this approximation to calculate the upper limit of flame temperature by assuming combustion loses no heat to its surroundings. In meteorology , adiabatic expansion and cooling of moist air, which can be triggered by winds flowing up and over a mountain for example, can cause the water vapor ...

  4. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    Such measurements often use a standard temperature of 25 °C (77 °F; 298 K) [citation needed]. This is the same as the thermodynamic heat of combustion since the enthalpy change for the reaction assumes a common temperature of the compounds before and after combustion, in which case the water produced by combustion is condensed to a liquid.

  5. Diesel cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel_cycle

    The flame temperature can be approximated to the adiabatic flame temperature of the fuel with corresponding air-to-fuel ratio and compression pressure, . T 1 {\displaystyle T_{1}} can be approximated to the inlet air temperature.

  6. Flame speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_speed

    The flame speed is the measured rate of expansion of the flame front in a combustion reaction. Whereas flame velocity is generally used for a fuel, a related term is explosive velocity, which is the same relationship measured for an explosive. Combustion engineers differentiate between the laminar flame speed and turbulent flame speed. Flame ...

  7. Flame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame

    Temperature of atmosphere links to adiabatic flame temperature (i.e., heat will transfer to a cooler atmosphere more quickly) How stoichiometric the combustion process is (a 1:1 stoichiometricity) assuming no dissociation will have the highest flame temperature; excess air/oxygen will lower it as will lack of air/oxygen

  9. Heat release parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_release_parameter

    is the adiabatic flame temperature; is the unburnt mixture temperature. In typical combustion process, . For isobaric combustion, using ideal gas law, the parameter can be expressed in terms of density, [3] i.e.,
