Cellular combustion of Ti powder in air ducts: Influence of convection currents

详细

Influence of gas convection on cellular combustion of Ti powder in slit-like reactors was studied experimentally. Heterogeneous combustion in inclined and dead-ended reactors was accompanied by diffusional and convective mass exchange between gaseous reactant and metal powder. Free convection of the gases evolved during combustion was found to favor the formation of inclined and cellular combustion fronts.
