This paper describes an analysis of the near-lean blow off(LBO) dynamics of spray flames, including the influence of fuel composition upon these dynamics. It is motivated by the fact that, while reasonable correlations exist for predicting blow off conditions, the fundamental reasons for why flames supported by flow recirculation actually blow off

The projected increase in global air traffic raises concerns about the potential impact aviation emissions have on climate and air quality. Previous studies have shown that aircraft non-landing and take-off (non-LTO) emissions (emitted above 1 km) can affect surface air quality by increasing concentrations of ozone (O3) and fine particles (PM2.5).
