Abstract
Combustion may be the first technique mastered by the humankind and until today, it is essential for the society. However, there is a lot more to understand about combustion, either by its basic concepts or by the frontiers of the knowledge. In order to improve the combustion technology this paper will test the applicability of the background-oriented schlieren (BOS), a quantitative technique, to measure laminar and turbulent flame velocity together with a temperature field. Both velocity and temperature are essential to improve the combustion process. The burner used to compare BOS with other methods is the Yale coflow burner because it is known as reference burner for academic purposes.
