Pressure Dependence of Soot Formation in Diffusion Flames
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effects of pressure on soot formation and the structure of the temperature field were studied in co-flow methane-air laminar diffusion flames over a wide pressure range, from atmospheric to 6 MPa (60 atm) in a high-pressure combustion chamber. The selected fuel mass flow rates provided diffusion flames in which the soot was completely oxidized within the visible flame envelope and the flame was stable at all pressures considered. The spatially resolved soot volume fraction and soot temperature were measured by spectral soot emission as a function of pressure. The visible (luminous) flame height remained almost unchanged, about 9 mm, from 1 to 10 MPa, whereas it increased considerably from atmospheric to 1 MPa. Between 1 MPa and 6 MPa, the cross-sectional area of the flame (measured from the radius defined by either the maximum soot or maximum temperature annuli) showed an inverse dependence on pressure. Peak soot concentrations showed a strong dependence on pressure from 1 MPa to 4 MPa; however this dependence got relatively weaker between 4 MPa and 6 MPa.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
