laminar flame
1Flame — A flame is often defined as the visible (light emitting) part of a fire. Physically, it is caused by a highly exothermic reaction (for example, combustion, a self sustaining oxidation reaction) taking place in a thin zone. A flame generally emits …
2Flame speed — The flame speed is the measured rate of expansion of the flame front in a combustion reaction. Whereas flame speed is generally used for a fuel, a related term is explosive velocity, which is the same relationship measured for an explosive.… …
3Premixed flame — A premixed flame is a flame in which the oxidizer has been mixed with the fuel before it reaches the flame front. This creates a thin flame front as all of the reactants are readily available. If the mixture is rich, a diffusion flame will… …
4Deflagration — A log in a fireplace. Deflagration (Lat: de + flagrare, to burn down ) is a term describing subsonic combustion that usually propagates through thermal conductivity; hot burning material heats the next layer of cold material and ignites it. Most… …

6Top Fuel — Racing is a class of drag racing in which the cars are run on a maximum of 90% nitromethane and about 10% methanol (also known as racing alcohol), instead of gasoline. The cars are purpose built race cars, with a layout superficially resembling… …
