Abstract

The quantitative characterization of sooting flames in terms of soot load and total soot surface area continues to be a major challenge in both fundamental investigations and practical applications. More particularly, a major interest can be found to discriminate the two classes of particulate, namely soot and cenosphere, presents in power generation plants fuelled with heavy fuel oils.
