Expt 4: Observations on Flame height of a Laminar Jet Diffusion Flame

Experimental Setup







Experimental Procedure



  • The CCD camera has to be positioned at a distance where the flame of maximum height can be captured. The camera should be aligned perpendicular to the front plane of the flame.

  • Once the camera position is fixed, it should not be disturbed or moved to a new position in order to avoid variable magnification.

  • CNG fuel is set to the desired flow rate using calibrated rotameter and ignited at the tube exit.

  • At a particular fuel flow rate, video of the flame should be taken for certain time.

  • This procedure is repeated for different fuel flow rates.

  • The time period of video for each flame should be kept constant in order to extract equal number of frames from the videos.
