Combustion need not involve oxygen ; e. g., hydrogen burns in chlorine to form hydrogen chloride with the liberation of heat and light characteristic of combustion.

Combustion of hydrocarbons is thought to be initiated by hydrogen atom abstraction ( not proton abstraction ) from the fuel to oxygen, to give a hydroperoxide radical ( HOO ).

Combustion hazards also apply to compounds of oxygen with a high oxidative potential, such as peroxides, chlorates, nitrates, perchlorates, and dichromates because they can donate oxygen to a fire.

The Droplet Combustion Experiment ( DCE ) is designed to investigate the fundamental combustion aspects of single, isolated droplets under different pressures and ambient oxygen concentrations for a range of droplet sizes varying between and.

The Droplet Combustion Experiment ( DCE ) is designed to investigate the fundamental combustion aspects of single, isolated droplets under different pressures and ambient oxygen concentrations for a range of droplet sizes varying between and.

Combustion is sometimes the cause for harmful exhaust gas, but, in many cases, combustion may also be used for exhaust gas cleaning if the temperature is high enough and enough oxygen is available.

Combustion () or burning is the sequence of exothermic chemical reactions between a fuel and an oxidant accompanied by the production of heat and conversion of chemical species.

Combustion is not necessarily favorable to the maximum degree of oxidation and it can be temperature-dependent.

Combustion resulting in a turbulent flame is the most used for industrial application ( e. g. gas turbines, gasoline engines, etc.

* Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition ( CCVD ) – Combustion Chemical Vapor Deposition or flame pyrolysis is an open-atmosphere, flame-based technique for depositing high-quality thin films and nanomaterials.

# Combustion stroke: Fuel combusts and piston is pushed downwards.

Spontaneous Combustion is also the name of:

In the 1984 mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap, Spontaneous Human Combustion is included as the cause of death of one of the band's numerous former drummers.

Combustion can be problematic if a lean mixture is present at the spark-plug.

Most operational boiler of this type is of the Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion.

In Pressurized Fluidized Bed Combustion ( PFBC ) type, a compressor supplies the Forced Draft ( FD ) air and the combustor is a pressure vessel.

Combustion occurs when the unassisted view of a planet from the earth is obscured by the light of the sun.

* In the 1999 episode " Spontaneous Combustion " of South Park, spontaneous human combustion is attributed to people's flatulence acting as the ignition.

Combustion in an incinerator is not always perfect and there have been concerns about pollutants in gaseous emissions from incinerator stacks.

Combustion 2008 is the newest version of Autodesk's visual effects and compositing software tool.

Combustion is a computer program " for motion graphics, compositing and visual effects " ( Discreet, n. d .).

CVCC is a trademark by the Honda Motor Company for an engine with reduced automotive emissions, which stood for " Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion ".

* Combustion chamber, part of an engine in which fuel is burned

* Combustion is more uniform compared to coal and boiler response to changes in steam requirements is faster, due to higher quantity of volatile matter in briquettes.

Combustion is the chemical reaction that feeds a fire more heat and allows it to continue.

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which complex molecules are broken down into smaller, more stable molecules through a rearrangement of atomic bonds.

Combustion is an oxidation-reduction reaction, meaning oxidization of a combustible by an oxidizer ;

In Petrucci's absence, Portnoy, Levin and Rudess recorded dozens of completely improvised jams, many of which would eventually be released on the album Spontaneous Combustion under the name Liquid Trio Experiment.

* Combustion analysis: Certain radical species ( such as CH * and OH *) give off radiation at specific wavelengths.

In " Mémoire sur la combustion en général " (" On Combustion in General ," 1777 ) and " Considérations générales sur la nature des acides " (" General Considerations on the Nature of Acids ," 1778 ), he demonstrated that the " air " responsible for combustion was also the source of acidity.

Combustion of fuels produces sulfur dioxide and nitric oxides.

Combustion processes behave differently in a microgravity environment than in Earth-gravity conditions due to the lack of buoyancy.

Combustion processes which happen in very small volumes are considered micro-combustion.

Combustion of a liquid fuel in an oxidizing atmosphere actually happens in the gas phase.

Combustion instabilities are typically violent pressure oscillations in a combustion chamber.

Combustion instabilities are a major concern in ground-based gas turbine engines because of NOx emissions.

* 1893: Diesel's essay titled Theory and Construction of a Rational Heat-engine to Replace the Steam Engine and Combustion Engines Known Today appeared.

* US Patent 845140 Combustion Engine, dated February 26, 1907.

Combustion engines are heat engines driven by the heat of a combustion process.

" Combustion " refers to burning fuel with an oxidizer, to supply the heat.

Combustion converts less than half the mass of black powder to gas.
