- Abstract
- Our major efforts during the current period were devoted to work on pyrolysis of the cellulosic materials used in the flaming combustion study. A general analysis of pyrolysis of charring materials was completed and numberical calculations have been made for cellulose. The experimental equipment for measuring the heat of gasification of cellulose was constructed and is being tested and calibrated.
