This video (real time) shows the effect of an oscillating electric field on a methane flame burning in air (the flame is ~15 cm tall in this case).
The field is applied via a wire electrode (shown on the left of the flame, pointed at the base of the flame), which is insulated by a glass shell, raised to a large oscillating potential.
The counterelectrode is outside the field of view and consists of a 50x50cm vertically oriented grounded plate.
The field conditions here have been chosen to show effective suppression in ~100 ms.

This video (three loops, the first two loops are in real time, the third loops is half speed) shows the effect of an oscillating electric field on a methane flame burning in air (the flame is ~50 cm tall in this case).
The field is applied via a wire electrode (shown on the left of the flame, pointed at the base of the flame), which is insulated by a glass shell, raised to a large oscillating potential.
The counterelectrode is on the right side of the box containing the flame and consists of a 50x50cm vertically oriented grounded plate.
The field conditions here have been chosen to show effective suppression in ~300 ms.

This video (real time) shows the effect of an oscillating electric field of varying intensity and constant frequency on a methane flame burning in air (the flame is ~15 cm tall in this case).
The field is applied via a wire electrode (shown on the left of the flame, pointed at the base of the flame), which is insulated by a glass shell, raised to a large oscillating potential.
The counterelectrode is outside the field of view and consists of a 50x50cm vertically oriented grounded plate.
The field conditions here have been chosen to show the field-dependent transition between attractive interaction and repulsive interaction.

This video (real time) shows the effect of an oscillating electric field of constant intensity and increasing frequency on a methane flame burning in air (the flame is ~15 cm tall in this case).
The field is applied via a wire electrode (shown on the left of the flame, pointed at the base of the flame), which is insulated by a glass shell, raised to a large oscillating potential.
The counterelectrode is outside the field of view and consists of a 50x50cm vertically oriented grounded plate.
The field conditions here have been chosen to show the increase of repulsion with frequency.
