The blow-off of burner flames

The mechanism of blow-off has been investigated because of the increased importance of this phenomenon consequent upon the conversion of the Gas Industry from high burning velocity manufactured gas to relatively low burning velocity natural gas. Burning velocity is regarded as the primary variable controlling flame stability, and correlations have therefore been sought between burning velocity and blow-off flow rate. For this purpose, burning velocities have been determined by the cooled flat flame method, and blow-off flow rates have been measured for inverted flames and for conical burner flames.
