Buoyancy Effects

Buoyancy Effects is a physical phenomenon in diffusion flames characterized by the influence of density gradients on fluid motion, where the upward movement of hot combustion products relative to cooler ambient air arises due to gravitational forces acting on density differences, thereby affecting flame structure and stability.
