increase lean burn flame stability, reduce emissions, and enhance low temperature fuel …

Premixed flame ignition is a fundamental issue in combustion. A basic understanding of this
phenomenon is crucial for fire safety control and for the development of advanced …

The present work investigates the accuracy of laminar flame speeds measured from
outwardly propagating spherical flames. We focus on methane/air mixtures at normal …

Low-temperature flames such as cool flames, warm flames, double flames, and auto-ignition
assisted flames play a critical role in the performance of advanced engines and fuel design …

Laminar flame speeds measured using the propagating spherical flame method are
inherently affected by radiation. Under certain conditions, a substantial uncertainty in …

Usually different autoignition modes can be generated by a hot spot in which ignition occurs
earlier than that in the surrounding mixture. However, for large hydrocarbon fuels with …

Internal short circuit (ISC) and the subsequent electrochemical heat release is frequently a
direct cause to trigger Li-ion battery thermal runaway. In this work, a decouple-recombine …

Recent discoveries and developments on the dynamic process of premixed turbulent spark
ignition are reviewed. The focus here is on the variation of turbulent minimum ignition …

Large discrepancies between the laminar flame speeds and Markstein lengths measured in
experiments and those predicted by simulations for ultra-lean methane/air mixtures bring a …

It is generally accepted that knock in spark ignition engines might be caused by end-gas
autoignition. However, the detailed mechanism for autoignition-induced pressure oscillation …
