Passage of SHS wave through a gap: Mathematical modeling

Resumo

Stability of combustion wave during its passage through a gaseous gap between two reactive layers was studied by mathematical modeling. The character of transient processes in the gap was explored as a function of thermophysical parameters of the layers, kinetic parameters, and gap width at a predominant role of radiative heat transfer. The passage of combustion wave through the gap was found to be accompanied by the attainment of superadiabatic temperatures within the transition zone. A critical temperature for burning failure at the interface was determined.
