- partially premixed methane flames; air stream dilution (ASD); fuel stream dilution (FSD) extinguishes; partially premixed flames (PPFs); nonpremixed (NP) behavior; extinction results in terms of the critical CO2 mole fraction; difference between critical CO2 mole fractions for fuel and air stream dilution
