In the present study, experiments were carried out to measure the lift-off height, HL; flame length, Lfand blow-off velocity for a simple LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) jet diffusion flames. It is observed that lift-off height is proportional to the fuel exit velocity, Uf. A semi-empirical correlation between lift-off height and global strain rate, Uf/Dfis proposed. Two regimes identified either as buoyancy or momentum dominated were characterized by Froude number, Fr. For momentum dominated jet diffusion flames, Lf/Dfremains almost constant and therefore is independent of the Froude number. The NOxemissions, expressed in terms of emission index, EINOxis found to decrease with Uf. This decreasing trend is consistent with the concept that increasing jet velocity reduces the residence time as reported in the literature. The present data is also compared with the available data of propane gas and found to be in good agreement well particularly in trend wise. Besides these data, EINOxscaling law is also reported in the present study.
