Burning Rate of Methyl and Ethyl Alcohols

Burning rate of immobilized methyl and ethyl alcohols on ceramic balls was studied. Experiments were performed by burning methyl, ethyl alcohols immobilized on sands (particle size 0.35mm) and ceramic balls (particle size 1-5mm) to measure mass burning rate, height burning rate and combustion temperature. The longer time from ignition to extinguishment was resulted from the larger particle size of ceramic balls and the smaller size of ceramic balls exhibited the higher mass burning rate. Of alcohols tested the relative magnitude of facilitation of combustion was methyl ＞ ethyl. Combustion temperature of alcohols, without regard to the types of alcohols, was not increased with smaller ceramic balls(up to 3mm of particle size). However, with larger ceramic balls, combustion temperatare of alcohols was increased by 40-50<TEX>$^{\circ}$</TEX> and the highest combustion temperatare was obtained with sands (particle size 0.35mm).
