Course Objectives
|
To provide a sound understanding of how to select an appropriate fuel for a given combustion application and how to classify and recognize the properties of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels. Knowledge of the mechanisms and properties of both flames controlled by mixing as well as reaction, and the influence of principal operating parameters on combustion efficiency, intensity, range of stability, etc will also be developed via this course.
