Adiabatic Flame Temperature

When a combustion reaction takes place energy is released to the combustion products.
If no heat is lost in this process, the temperature of the combustion products is known
as the "Adiabatic Flame Temperature."
This is the maximum temperature that can be achieved for given products.
When a flame loses heat to the environment, or is diluted with an inert material that
has to be heated with the heat released in the combustion reaction, the actual
temperature reached is less than the ideal adiabatic flame temperature. This is the
actual "Flame Temperature."
The constant volume adiabatic flame temperature is the temperature that
results from a complete combustion process that occurs without any work, heat transfer
or changes in kinetic or potential energy.
The constant pressure adiabatic flame temperature is the temperature that
results from a complete combustion process that occurs without any heat transfer or
changes in kinetic or potential energy.
Its temperature is lower than the constant volume process because some of
the energy is utilized to change the volume of the system (i.e., generate work).
