Põletusterminoloogia
Põletusterminoloogia refers to the specialized vocabulary used in the study and practice of combustion. This field encompasses a wide range of terms that describe the processes, components, and phenomena associated with burning. Key terms include:
Combustion: The chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant, typically oxygen, resulting in the release
Ignition: The process of initiating combustion, often through the application of heat, a spark, or an electrical
Flame: The visible, gaseous part of a fire, consisting of hot gases and glowing particles.
Fuel: The material that undergoes combustion, providing the energy for the process.
Oxidant: The substance that combines with the fuel during combustion, usually oxygen from the air.
Pyrolysis: The thermal decomposition of organic materials in the absence of oxygen, producing gases, liquids, and
Smoldering: A type of combustion that occurs at relatively low temperatures, producing a smoky flame.
Flaming: A type of combustion that occurs at higher temperatures, producing a visible flame.
Heat release rate: The rate at which heat is released during combustion, often measured in kilowatts per
Põletusterminoloogia is essential for understanding and controlling combustion processes in various applications, including industrial processes, energy
