Funded Activity Summary

Ignition Mechanisms and Flame Evolution of Single Particles and Clouds of Pulverised Coal under Microgravity Condition. Gravity obscures some of the most subtle phenomena that are key to answering outstanding questions today, including combustion phenomena. The main scientific benefit from this fundamental research stems from the fact that it addresses far-reaching issues that transcend the boundaries of combustion science. It provides a rare opportunity to observe and understand the fundamental phenomena of combustion beyond the limitation of gravity on the earth surface, thus enriching our body of knowledge in this area. This new knowledge will provide a foundation for tomorrow's combustion science and technology.
