Combustion and Flame THE JOURNAL OF THE COMBUSTION INSTITUTE The journal exists for the publication of experimental and theoretical investigations of combustion phenomena and closely allied matters. Among the subjects emphasized are: atmospheric pollution from combustion; combustion in practical systems; deflagration and detonation waves; electrical aspects of flames; experimental techniques; fire phenomena; flame inhibition, stability, and structure; fluid dynamics and combustion; heat transfer and radiation; heterogeneous combustion; kinetics and mechanisms of combustion reactions; limits of flammability and of spontaneous ignition; materials synthesis in flames; microgravity combustion; modeling and scaling in combustion processes; new applications of combustion; numerical simulation of combustion; propellants; soot formation; supersonic reacting flow; thermal decomposition processes; thermochemistry and thermodynamics of combustion; transport properties in combustion; turbulent flames. The journal also publishes occasional book reviews. EDITORS F.N.
