International Symposium on Combustion, 14th, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pa., August 20-25, 1972, Proceedings.
Some elementary steps for the formation and destruction of nitric oxide in the H-N-O system, high-temperature oxidation of hydrogen by nitrous oxide in shock waves, and high-temperature fast-flow reactor studies of metal-atom oxidation kinetics are among the topics covered in papers concerned with elementary reactions in combustion. Other areas covered include oscillatory, turbulent, and supersonic combustion; flames in furnaces and combustors; and pollutant formation and destruction in flames. Individual items are announced in this issue.
