Effects of Reynolds Number and Equivalence Ratio on Flame Shapes

Investigating the Influence of Reynolds Number and Equivalence Ratio on Flame Shapes and Soot Formation

Abstract

Experiments were conducted on premixed LPG/air circular flame jet to study the flame shapes. The parameters like equivalence ratio and Reynolds number have been varied to study the flame shapes and characteristics. Increased in both equivalence ratio and Reynolds numbers there was increase in height of the flame and soot formation in the flame was observed.
