Combustion Efficiency of Homogeneous Fuel-air Mixtures in a 5-inch Ram-jet-type Combustor

Thaine W. Reynolds, R. D. Ingebo

Abstract

Report presenting combustion-efficiency data for a 5-inch-diameter combustor employing a straight V-gutter flame holder and a simple cone flame holder. The data covers a range of inlet static pressures, temperatures, and velocities for four fuels. The majority of the data indicated that the combustion efficiency was relatively insensitive to fuel-air ratio over the range of fuel-air ratios investigated.
