From theory to safety: New model predicts how combustion scenarios unfold

Researchers from Skoltech have published a paper in the journal Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena presenting an analysis of steady propagating combustion waves-from slow flames to supersonic detonation waves. The study relies on the authors' mathematical model, which captures the key physical properties of complex combustion processes and yields accurate analytical and numerical solutions. The findings are important for understanding the physical mechanisms behind the transition from deflagrati...
