Combustion Rate of Solid Fuels in the Superadiabatic Mode

Abstract

Theoretical and experimental dependences of the combustion front propagation velocity in a layer of a solid carbon fuel on various external factors and conditions were examined in the case of filtration of the gaseous oxidizing agent. Particular attention was given to the superadiabatic modes with heat accumulation. It was shown that, in the case of a superadiabatic filtration combustion mode, the combustion velocity is primarily determined by the supply rate of the oxidizing agent and by the stoichiometric process ratio for particular conditions.
