IDEAL develops a new model to predict premixed-flame thermoacoustic frequencies
This paper presents an experimental study of the influence of heat losses on the onset of thermoacoustic instabilities in flames propagating in a horizontal tube

Assistance to 13th Asia ASPACC conference in Abu Dhabi
13thAsia-Pacific Conference on Combustion (ASPACC), jointly hosted by the Saudi Arabian Section of the Combustion Institute and Khalifa University, Abu Dhabi. ASPACC provides a scientific

Participation in XXV International Congress of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics

IDEAL studies the ignition of combustible mixtures near a wall
The ignition process produced by the instantaneous application of a linear local heat source near a cold wall is studied using irreversible Arrhenius kinetics. Special

IDEAL develops a 3D simulation code to study H2-air flames
The propagation of a lean hydrogen-air isobaric flame in a quiescent mixture contained between two parallel plates closed on one side (named Hele-Shaw chamber) is
