Excerpt from Gas Burners, Old and New: A Historical and Descriptive Treatise on the Progress of Invention in Gas Lighting; Embracing an Account of the Theory of Luminous Combustion The little work here presented to the public appeared originally in the pages of the Journal of Gas Lighting. In the hope that it may thereby become of service to a Wider circle of readers, it has been revised and dorie'into its present shape. The object of the writer will be attained if it is the means of lessening, in any degree, the suspicion and prejudice (born of ignorance) Which, alas! Yet prevail.

Tubular combustion describes flames in tubes where ignition and propagation occur in spatially confined, highly-controlled environments, created in narrow elongated cylindrical geometry. This confinement allows for unique advantages where extremely even heat dispersion is required over a large surface while still maintaining fuel utilization efficiency.

"The National Research Council was asked by the Army to form a special, ad hoc committee to investigate whether incidents involving chemical warfare material stored, processed, and destroyed at the two operational Army chemical demilitarization sites provide useful information for the safe operation of future sites"--P. 1.

Every summer, thousands gather from around the world in the blistering heat of Nevada's Black Rock Desert for the seven-day celebration of art, community, and fire known as Burning Man. Culminating in the spectacular incineration of a wooden effigy, this festival is grand-scale theater for self-expression, personal transformation, eclectic spirituality, communal bonding, and cultural renewal. In this engrossing ethnography of the Burning Man phenomenon, Lee Gilmore explores why "burners" come in vast numbers to transform a temporary gathering of strangers into an enduring community. Accompanied by a DVD, which provides panoramic views of events, individuals, artworks, and, of course, the climactic final night, the book delves into the varieties of spirituality, ritual, and performance conducted within the festival space.

This book focuses on the progress in modern energy processes, systems and equipment. Since the beginning of humankind, energy has been the most important need for each human and living being. Thus, the development of different ways of energy conversion that can be applied to cover growing energy needs has become a crucial challenge for scientists and engineers around the world, making the power industry, in which operation is based on subsequent energy conversion processes, one of the most important fields of the local, national, and global economy today. Progress in precise description, modeling, and optimization of physical phenomena related to the energy conversion processes bounded to large and dispersed power systems is a key research and development field of the economy.
