Abstract :
Continuous measurement of combustion temperature and speed in a magnetic field was studied to precisely determine the nature of combustion in a field. When methanol was burned in a magnetic field, combustion speed only decreased to a low value at 0.9 T. Combustion reaction speed is inhibited at 0.9 T, and it seems that effectively the combustion temperature is reduced. Also, there is a tendency to large fluctuations of combustion temperature variation amplitude and frequency in the magnetic field.
