  2. 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

  3. Adiabatic flame temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_flame_temperature

    Different fuels with different levels of energy and molar constituents will have different adiabatic flame temperatures. Constant pressure flame temperature of a number of fuels, with air Nitromethane versus isooctane flame temperature and pressure. We can see by the following figure why nitromethane (CH 3 NO 2) is often used as a power boost ...

    Dicyanoacetylene (C 4 N 2) in oxygen (highest flame temperature) 4982 °C 9000 °F The above data is given with the following assumptions: The flame is adiabatic;

  6. Combustibility and flammability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustibility_and...

    A combustible material is a material that can burn (i.e., sustain a flame) in air under certain conditions. A material is flammable if it ignites easily at ambient temperatures. In other words, a combustible material ignites with some effort and a flammable material catches fire immediately on exposure to flame.

  7. 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.

  8. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    There are two kinds of enthalpy of combustion, called high(er) and low(er) heat(ing) value, depending on how much the products are allowed to cool and whether compounds like H 2 O are allowed to condense. The high heat values are conventionally measured with a bomb calorimeter. Low heat values are calculated from high heat value test data.

  9. Flame treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_treatment

    The precombustion area is the coolest part of the flame because the amount of released energy (heat) is low. The main reaction zone is used for the surface treatment because this zone has the highest temperature and number of oxidizing agents. The flame reaches its highest temperature (1900–2000°C) when all the propane has reacted with the air.
