Burning rates of turbulent iso-octane aerosol mixtures in spherical flame explosions
A significantly more accurately quantified and fundamental study of enhanced burning rates due to aerosols than has been reported previously. Directly relevant to engines and hazards such as the Buncefield explosion. Presented at the premier event in combustion, proceedings of which have high IP. First presented by Saat, amins@fkm.utm.my, at the Early Career Researchers Meeting, Combustion Physics Group, IOP, 22 September 2009, Loughborough University and was awarded 1st prize for ‘Best industrially-relevant research poster’ and 2nd prize for ‘best poster presentation’. It attracted a fully funded visiting Chinese academic, Dr liao shiyong, shyliao@gmail.com for a period of one year.
