Comparison of flame spread and blow-off extinction over vertical and horizontal PMMA samples

Flame spread in the kinetic regime and eventual extinction have been studied for more than four decades for the implications on fire safety and flame instabilities. It is well known that the ratio between the residence time and the combustion time at the leading edge, the so called Damköhler number,...
