A critical evaluation of the spherical constant volume vessel method for determining laminar burning velocity

A Thesis Presen ted in Fulfilm ent of the Requirem ents for the Degree of
Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering
August 1963 / The objectives of combustion research are considered and attention
directed to laminar flames, the burning velocity of which is recognised as a
basic parameter in all combustion problem s. Various methods of determining
this property are critically reviewed and, as a result, it is concluded
th at the spherical constant volume vessel technique is potentially one of the
most versa tile and accurate. However this method does not appear to have
been extensively used, probably because the available equations virtually
relegate it to the status of a constant pressure technique
