Verbrennung ist der weltweit wichtigste Prozess zur Umwandlung chemisch gebundener Energie in technisch nutzbare Wärme. Der Einsatz von Wasser hat dabei das Potenzial, Luftschadstoffe wie Stickoxide effizient zu reduzieren. Für die Entwicklung derartiger Verbrennungssysteme sind heute Simulationen wichtige Werkzeuge. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird dazu der Einfluss von Wasser auf die Verbrennung flüssiger Brennstoffe (mit Emulsionsbezug) durch experimentelle und numerische Methoden modelliert. Combustion is the world's most important process for the conversion of chemically bound energy into technically usable heat. In this context, the application of water has the potential to efficiently reduce air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides. Simulations are an important tool for the development of such combustion systems. In the present work, the influence of water on the combustion of liquid fuels (emulsion related) is modelled by experimental and numerical methods.

A Gallery of Combustion and Fire is the first book to provide a graphical perspective of the extremely visual phenomenon of combustion in full color. It is designed primarily to be used in parallel with, and supplement existing combustion textbooks that are usually in black and white, making it a challenge to visualize such a graphic phenomenon. Each image includes a description of how it was generated, which is detailed enough for the expert but simple enough for the novice. Processes range from small scale academic flames up to full scale industrial flames under a wide range of conditions such as low and normal gravity, atmospheric to high pressures, actual and simulated flames, and controlled and uncontrolled flames. Containing over 500 color images, with over 230 contributors from over 75 organizations, this volume is a valuable asset for experts and novices alike.

The author explores the origins of the eighteenth-century chemical revolution as it centers on Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier's earliest work on combustion. He shows that the main lines of Lavoisier's theory-including his theory of a heat-fluid, caloric-were elaborated well before his discovery of the role played by oxygen. Contrary to the opinion prevailing at that time, Lavoisier suspected, and demonstrated by experiment, that common air, or some portion of it, combines with substances when they are burned. Professor Guerlac examines critically the theories of other historians of science concerning these first experiments, and tries to unravel the influences which French, German, and British chemists may have had on Lavoisier. He has made use of newly discovered material on this phase of Lavoisier's career, and includes an appendix in which the essential documents are printed together for the first time.
