Speaker
Delaney Seeburger - Reax Engineering
Description
This presentation will discuss the characterization of soot produced under varying oxygen/nitrogen concentrations during combustion of pine needles. These experiments were performed to analyze the effect variations in soot particle size may have on radiation in wildland fires. Because of the increasing frequency and severity of wildland fires, understanding the mechanisms of fire spread and the role soot particles play is of critical importance.
Biography
