    limiting oxygen concentration - one way direction?

    Latexman, Compositepro thanks for your replies. I have checked sciencedirect, and the encyclopedia but could not find it that specific. But after reading the final reply it becomes clearer. So in a batch process the flame will stop after falling below below, but in a stocho fed continuously...

    limiting oxygen concentration - one way direction?

    Thanks David, It is interesting that you mention the LEL and UEL here because they relate to flammability range when added with air. the LOC ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limiting_oxygen_concentration) is the concentration of O2 where, no matter what amount of fuel present, no combustion...

    limiting oxygen concentration - one way direction?

    Hi, the concept of LOC does it relate to adiabatic flame temperature? LOC is the point in ppO2 where the gas mixture does not combust when you try to ignite it. Combustion defined as: no flames, no explosion. Slow (flame-less) oxidation is possible though below LOC. When I have a combustible...
