Magnetic flame spread

ABSTRACT The work investigates interdependence of two diverse phenomenon and related implications. Flame spread behavior is undertaken for reform in need of developing efficient methods in combustion sciences and fire applications. An experimental setup was raised and through experimentation was carried out. Magnetic effect on flames is investigated in the form of number of magnets, separation distance, intensity and polarity of magnets. Results show that magnetic presence mostly augments the spreading of flames and is reluctant to the heat sink effect. Different magnetic configurations result in distinct characteristic trend with respect to energy interactions with the spreading flame. Energy interaction of magnets with flame and with adjacent magnets dictates the entire magnetic flame spread behavior.
