Clarke–Riley diffusion flame

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In combustion, Clarke–Riley diffusion flame is a diffusion flame that develops inside a naturally convected boundary layer on a hot fuel surface with quiescent oxidizer environment, first studied and experimentally verified by John Frederick Clarke and Norman Riley in 1976.[1] This problem is an extension of Emmons problem.[2]
