- Abstract
- Two sets of experimental data on flame length under flat ceilings from a burner in a lower corner of a room have been correlated by conventional dimensionless variabhles. The correlations are shown to have considerable similarity to those of temperature distributions under ceilings caused by a heat source below. Matching is effected by a choice of temperature rise of approximately 180 deg C.
