LIFTED FLAMES
M. G. Mungal
Stanford University

The pictures show turbulent jet visualization (Re = 4100, methane) through Mie scattering (instantaneous, green) and flame emission (1/30 s average, blue).

a) Nonreacting, jet seed is alumina.

b) Lifted flame, jet seed is alumina.

c) Lifted flame, co-flow seed is glycerol-water fog.

The axial view is about 50 nozzle diameters or 24 cm.
