Determining role of the chain mechanism of hydrazine oxidation and decomposition in kinetically controlled combustion and explosion

Аннотация

It has been inferred from experimental data that the hydrazine oxidation and decomposition reactions occur via a branched-chain and a nonbranched-chain mechanism, respectively. Taking into account the chain nature of these processes helps explain the observed regularities under the critical autoignition conditions, including their “anomalous” character and the combustion-to-explosion transition.
