Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Combustion and Flame publishes research on combustion processes, including the simulation and measurement of emissions like NO in hydrogen-air flames, the burning rates of solid polymers, and flame-wall interactions in aero-engine combustion chambers. The journal also covers chemical kinetic modeling for fuels such as sustainable aviation fuels and ammonia, and investigates droplet combustion dynamics.
