- Abstract
- The report presents the justification for and the results of a feasibility study of a program to study flammability limits at zero g in Space Lab. The conclusions are that there is good justification for studying both flammability limits and the flow associated with lean limit flames under zero g conditions and for performing such studies in the Space Lab environment.
