Flame Test Lab Introduction/Purpose: When a certain amount of energy is supplied within an atom‚ the electrons of that atom begin to move up the levels of electron configuration. This level of energy is called a quantum. The object of this experiment was to examine the movement of electrons up and down energy levels through the use of given elemental substances. With heat supplying a large amount of energy‚ the properties of the elements caused them to give off a certain color or tone of

AE 6766 Project 3 Nonpremixed Flames Introduction: In order to understand the structure of non-premixed flames‚ this projects employs a type of opposed flow diffusion to generate a nearly one-dimensional an axisymmetric diffusion flame. The one dimensional character of this flame is significant because it reduces complexities compared to a 2 dimensional flame‚ which allows for manageable and practical calculations. Moreover‚ this type of flame can be generated and easily investigated in the
