aircraft flying parabolic trajectories; steady upward flame spread over a thin solid fuel in partial-gravity environments was investigated; three-dimensional numerical model was developed to predict more accurately the three-dimensional experimental flame behavior than previous two-dimensional attempts; results of the upward flame spread experiments and modeling predictions; flame appearance
