Abstract:
The following report summarizes the progress achieved
during the period April 1, 1992 through August 20, 1992
for grant 60NANB0D1035, "Fundamental Mechanisms for CO
and Soot Formation in Diffusion Flames". This report
will also serve as an annual report for the program.
The report will summarize the results obtained of the
effects of soot concentration on the production of
carbon monoxide in overventilated laminar diffusion
flames and will describe recent results on
underventilated diffusion flames. The former studies
were conducted in collaboration with Dr. Kermit Smyth of
NIST, while the latter studies were conducted in
collaboration with Dr. George Mulholland of NIST during
his sabbatical leave at Penn State last year.
