What is the process of combustion?
Combustion
Combustion processes which happen in very small volumes are considered micro-combustion. The high surface-to-volume ratio increases specific heat loss. Quenching distance plays a vital role in stabilizing the flame in such combustion chambers.
Carbon-burning process
The carbon-burning process or carbon fusion is a set of nuclear fusion reactions that take place in the cores of massive stars (at least 8 formula_1 at birth) that combines carbon into other elements. It requires high temperatures (> 5×10 K or 50 keV) and densities (> 3×10 kg/m).
