Diffusive burning characteristics of TBPB fuel | IIT Roorkee Apr 2018 - present
• An extraordinary device-less self sustained oscillatory diffusive burning is observed in tert-butyl peroxy benzoate fuel.
• The variation in fuel mass burning rates, visible flame lengths and radiation heat fluxes with time are measured as
respective representatives of oscillations. A theory is offered to characterize similar effect showing fuels.
