Nobody ever went into academia to make a fast buck. Professors, especially those in medical- and technology-related fields, typically earn a fraction of what their colleagues in industry do.

The fire was modeled by the mixture fraction combustion method with chemical reaction mechanisms neglected. Laminar diffusion flame theory with one-step irreversible fast reactions is assumed.

A fast and efficient method, heat quantity method, to determine the phenol content in mixing fraction in coal tar is introduced.
