A flame holder is a device placed in a stream of rapidly
flowing combustible mixture to anchor the flame and to make
burning possible. The flame holder has its most immediate
application in the ram Jet fields where counter flows are
impractical, and it is desirable that combustion take place at as
high a stream velocity as possible. The desired stream velocities
far exceed the flame propagation velocities; thus, the flame
holder is introduced into the stream to prevent the blowing out
of the flame from the combustion region and to anchor the flame
at a predetermined point.
