- present experimental data from diffusion flames in crosswinds to elucidate the relative importance of parameters that affect their carbon conversion efficiency; to develop empirical models to estimate the efficiency of flares; develop models to estimate the efficiency of continuous flaring operations similar to solution-gas flares; effects of fuel gas composition and the inclusion of inert diluents; propane-based flare streams; natural-gas (methane-) based flare streams; property data for different fuel blends; effects of burner tube diameter; influence of crosswind turbulence
