Effects of carbon dioxide on flammability limits of acetylene

An experimental study on the effect of carbon dioxide (CO2) dilution on flammability limit of acetylene (C2H2) was performed,for system with various concentration of fuel.The objectives of this experiment were to determine the lower flammability limit(LFL)and upper flammability limit(UFL)of C2H2 and...
