Observed dependence of characteristics of liquid-pool fires on swirl magnitude
W. Coenen, E. J. Kolb, A. L. Sánchez +1
One dozen vertically oriented thin rectangular vanes, 62 cm tall and 15.2 cm wide, were placed 27 cm from the center of heptane and ethanol pool fires in continuously fed, floor-fl…
Regimes of boundary layer ignition by heat release from a localized energy source
Mario Sanchez Sanz, Eduardo Fernandez Tarrazo, Antonio L. Sanchez
This paper investigates the initiation of a deflagration in a premixed boundary-layer stream by continuous heat deposition from a line energy source placed perpendicular to the flo…
Non-Boussinesq stability analysis of natural-convection gaseous flow on inclined hot plates
Prabakaran Rajamanickam, Wilfried Coenen, Antonio L. Sánchez
The buoyancy-driven boundary-layer flow that develops over a semi-infinite inclined hot plate is known to become unstable at a finite distance from the leading edge, characterized…
A model for the constant-density boundary layer surrounding fire whirls
Adam D. Weiss, Prabakaran Rajamanickam, Wilfried Coenen +2
This paper investigates the steady axisymmetric structure of the cold boundary-layer flow surrounding fire whirls developing over localized fuel sources lying on a horizontal surfa…
