ABSTRACT

Underventilated flames will normally occur for Burke-Schumann solutions if the ratio of the outer diameter (b) and inner diameter (a) approaches unity. True or false? Explain.

Problem 12.2:

Find the height of a methane-air flame in infinite surroundings. The diameter of the burner is 0.373 cm. The flow rate of CH

through the burner is 60 cm

/min. The inlet temperature is 298 K, and the pressure is 100 kPa. (Experimental values are found to be around 1 cm. Assume

rD

=

6.5

×

kg/ m sec

=

constant.)

Problem 12.3:

A mixture of N

(10% by mass) and C

H

flows through an inner duct of 2-cm diameter while air flows through an outer duct of diameter 4 cm. Assume that the Burke-Schumann analysis is applicable (i.e., v

=

constant throughout the cross section of the duct).
