| dc.description.abstract | <P> The design, and construction of a combustion chamber was undertaken, and the basic considerations, design steps and calculations are described. The preliminary testing consisted of measurements of flame temperature, flame tube wall temperature, and flame tube exit plane temperature. A comparison was made between the experimental and theoretical flame temperatures. The uniformity of air flow in the annulus between the flame tube and outer casing was investigated. Tests were made to ascertain the effect of the gas nozzle position on the condition of the combustion gases. </p> | en_US |
