of Lodz, Poland) and Veyssiere (mechanics and physics, CNRS, France) have collected contributions from fellow scientists and engineers on the topics of combustion chemistry, flammability limits, spark ignition, counterflow twin-flame configurations and flame in a vortex core.
It was hypothesized that the slope of the graph of the adiabatic flame temperature versus phi would change drastically as it crosses the upper and lower flammability limits.
