Combustion refers to a reaction that generates extreme heat by compounding fuel with atmospheric oxygen. "Catalytic combustion" is designed to enhance this reaction by catalytic assistance. Characteristic of this is stabilizing the combustion without flame blow-off even when using less-concentrated fuel. 4, record 1, English, - flame%20blow%2Doff

Stabilisation vis-à-vis du décollement et du soufflage. Pour protéger la flamme contre le décollement et le risque de soufflage, on peut: - protéger la base des flammes des courants d'air provenant de la convection, - réchauffer la base de la flamme (flamme pilote), - assurer l'équilibre des vitesses à la base de la flamme. 4, record 2, French, - soufflage%20de%20la%20flamme
