  3. 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.

  4. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    The above value of 1.4 is highly consistent with the measured adiabatic indices for dry air within a temperature range of 0–200 °C, exhibiting a deviation of only 0.2% (see tabulation above). For a linear triatomic molecule such as CO 2 , there are only 5 degrees of freedom (3 translations and 2 rotations), assuming vibrational modes are not ...

  5. 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.,

  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. Flammability diagram - Wikipedia

    Any mixture of methane and air will therefore lie on the straight line between pure methane and pure air – this is shown as the blue air-line. The upper and lower flammability limits of methane in air are located on this line, as shown (labelled UEL and LEL, respectively). The stoichiometric combustion of methane is: CH 4 + 2O 2 → CO 2 + 2H ...

  8. Combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion

    The flames caused as a result of a fuel undergoing combustion (burning) Air pollution abatement equipment provides combustion control for industrial processes.. Combustion, or burning, [1] is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

    Propane burner with a Bunsen flame Oxy-Acetylene for cutting through steel rails Flame of a gas and oil, in a dual burner. A gas burner is a device that produces a non-controlled flame by mixing a fuel gas such as acetylene, natural gas, or propane with an oxidizer such as the ambient air or supplied oxygen, and allowing for ignition and ...
