Homogeneous Combustion

…
[Type of combustion]
Generally, combustion shows a wide variety of behaviors at first glance due to the wide range of materials involved, their states, and environmental conditions, but these can be formally classified as follows: (1) Homogeneous and heterogeneous combustion This classification is based on the number of phases involved in combustion. When there is a single phase, such as the combustion of hydrogen gas or propane gas, it is called a homogeneous system, and when there are two phases, such as the combustion of liquids such as gasoline or solids such as plastics and wood, it is called a heterogeneous system. (2) Propagating and stationary combustion This classification is based on whether the position of the flame produced by combustion changes over time. …

*Some of the terminology that refers to "homogeneous combustion" is listed below.

［燃焼の形式］
　一般に，燃焼はこれにかかわる物質の種類や状態，環境条件などが多岐にわたるため，一見著しく多様な挙動を示すが，これは形式的には次のように分類できる。(1)均一(均質)系燃焼と不均一(不均質)系燃焼　燃焼に関与する相の数による分け方で，水素ガスやプロパンガスの燃焼のように単一相のときを均一系，ガソリンのような液体やプラスチック，木材などの固体のそれのように2相にまたがる場合を不均一系という。(2)伝播（でんぱ）燃焼と定置(定在)燃焼　燃焼によって生ずる火炎の位置が時間とともに変わるか変わらないかによる分類。…
