Abstract
[ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] An experimental study was made to explore the air entrainment into heptane fires and the smoke blocking effect of luminous zone. Heptane was burned in five different size tanks of 0.3m, 0.6m, lm, 2m, and 6m in diameter, respectively, and the measurements were made on the burning rate of heptane, flame temperature, vertical hot gas velocity, gas composition and heat radiation from the fires.
