Abstract: The blowout limit of a methane jet diffusion flame is extended by adding small concentrations of a fuel to the surrounding air. The improvement is predicted theoretically with a model based ...

Abstract: The blowout limit of a methane jet diffusion flame is examined in the presence of a number of much smaller pilot jet flames of different fuels arranged within an experimental burner assembly ...

Abstract: The combustion of a homogeneous lean methane-air stream was investigated in a vertical, cylindrical combustor of 150 mm diameter in the presence of a metallic wire mesh. Eight metallic materials ...

Abstract: This paper presents a successful demonstration of application of neural networks to perform various data mining functions on an RB211 gas-turbine-driven compressor station. Radial basis function ...
