| Description | Fueled by a necessity to develop an understanding of flame spread in microgravity environment due to the fire safety aspects in manned spacecrafts, considerable work has been done during the last decade on laminar flame spread over solid fuels. In this study, we present a simplified scale analysis and recently acquired spread rate data in the MGLAB, Japan to address the role played by fuel thickness in opposed-flow flame spread with emphasis on the limiting case of the quiescent environment. |
