Myers-Uyehara special Lindbergh Seminar
Engineering the flame: Perspectives from fundamental combustion
Event Details
Date
Thursday, April 3, 2014
Time
12 p.m.
Location
1800 Engineering Hall
Description
Prof. Chung K. Law, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Princeton University.
In this seminar I will discuss several topics of current interest, illustrating the richness of their behavior: (1) morphology and self-acceleration of expanding spherical flames; (2) fuel-similarity of laminar and turbulent flames; (3) facilitated ignition in turbulence through differential diffusion; and (4) existence and properties of the low-temperature, NTC (negative-temperature-coefficient) flames.
