Detailed Description

Laminar flame speed obtained from Ravi and Petersen's correlation.

The correlation for the laminar flame speed $Su$ is of the following form:

$\‍[ Su = \left( \sum \alpha_i \phi^i \right) \left( \frac{T}{T_{ref}} \right)^{\left( \sum \beta_j \phi^j \right)} \‍]$

Where $\phi$ is the equivalence ratio, and $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are polynomial coefficients given for a number of pressure and equivalence ratio points.
