  34. CONCLUSIONS: •  It is found, that diffusion combustion of the laminar round macrojet propane with a top – hat mean velocity profile at the nozzle exit is accompanied by presence of the attached flame developing downstream without any pulsations. •  It is shown, that diffusion combustion of the turbulent round macrojet propane is accompanied by the lifted flame, presence of the high-frequency oscillations and the flame broadening. •  It is found, that diffusion combustion of the laminar round propane macrojet with a parabolic mean velocity profile at the nozzle exit is accompanied by presence of the attached flame developing downstream without any pulsations. •  It is shown, that diffusion combustion of the turbulent round propane macrojet is accompanied by a flame liftoff, presence of the ring vortex on jet butt showing distribution of a flame in narrow area on a jet periphery, jet broadening and presence of the high-frequency pulsations. • It is found, that the flame of round propane microjet combustion is subjected by the flattening and splitting on two jets in a transverse acoustic field. • It is shown, that the lifted flame at diffusion combustion of the round propane microjet in a transverse acoustic field is subjected the flattening and more than three times transverse broadening in comparison with a flame without acoustic influence.

  35.  It is revealed, that the detached flame at diffusion combustion of the round propane microjet is subjected to bifurcation due to the break of a sinusoidal oscillation jet on two parts on each half-cycle of its fluctuation in a transverse acoustic field .  It is shown, that process of the flame bifurcation at diffusion combustion of the round propane microjet in a transverse acoustic field can occur both in case of attached and lifted flame.  It is found, that influence of a transverse acoustic field on process of the diffusion and premixed propane/air mixturre combustion of in a plane microjet at the small lengthening nozzle (l/d = 10) results in broadening of combustion area and bifurcation of a flame further downstream.  It is shown, that influence of a transverse acoustic field on process of the diffusion combustion of propane in a plane microjet at the big lengthening nozzle (l/d = 180 results in broadening of combustion area, flame bifurcation and its propagation on a surface of each of two arising jets. It is found, that the mechanism of a flame round microjets bifurcation is connected with the round jet flattening in a transverse acoustic field that results in two dimensional character of a jet development and impossibility of an explanation of the bifurcation jet phenomenon within the framework of the rotating moment effect (baroclinic torque).
