A certain amount of heat is furnished from outside at constant temperature with an external electric furnace to investigate localized self-ignition temperature. This investigation studies the effect of flow rate and mixture strength. Noting that, Ignition of mixtures occurs at same temperature for different mass flow rates of CH₄-Air mixtures, while it is decreased for increased flow rates of CH₄-H₂-Air mixtures. Equivalence ratio for CH₄ mixtures is found to be within different range from traditional self-ignition combustion UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
