“…In some of the early work on electric fieldflame interactions, Weinberg and coworkers (Lawton and Weinberg, 1969;Lawton et al, 1968;Browser and Weinberg, 1972) and Calcote and coworkers (Berman et al, 1991;Calcote, 1949;Calcote and Berman, 1989;Calcote and Pease, 1951) as well as others (Bradley and Nasser, 1984;Noorani and Holmes, 1985) have found a significant effect when an electric field is applied in the flame stabilization region. For example, the Bunsen burner flames studied by Calcote and Pease (1951) were stabilized at leaner fuel=air stoichiometries in the presence of an imposed electric field.…”
