Abstract

This review summarizes the results of recent experimental studies on the diffusion combustion of hydrogen microjets. It examines the influence of nozzle geometry, jet profile and exit velocity, and gravitational factors on flame structure. Particular attention is paid to the combustion of hydrogen mixtures and the interaction mechanisms between a circular supersonic air jet and a coaxial (co-flowing) hydrogen stream.
