The induction zone length is an important length scale for gaseous detonations, as it is
correlated with other characteristic parameters such as the cell size. A good characterization …

We use advanced experimental techniques to explore turbulence-induced deflagration-to-
detonation transition (tDDT) in hydrogen–air mixtures. We analyze the full sequence of …

The structures and mechanisms of aerosolized liquid-fuel cloud detonations are studied in a
detonation facility using simultaneous high-speed optical diagnostics. The characteristic …

This study presents a thorough evaluation of the simultaneous planar laser-induced
fluorescence (PLIF) on hydroxyl (OH) radicals and nitric oxide (NO), for characterizing …

Although the process through which a deflagration transitions to a detonation (DDT) has
been studied for over a century, it is not well-understood how the propensity for DDT varies …

The characteristic behavior of the wall exerts a strong influence on the flame acceleration
(FA) and deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) processes in microchannels …

The effect of the degree of flow turbulence on detonation processes is analyzed. The relation
between the turbulence parameters in front of and behind the shock wave is obtained for the …

In the research discussed, a comprehensive investigation was undertaken to delineate the
deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) of a hydrogen-oxygen (H2-O2) mixture within the …

The contribution of the baroclinic torque on the production of turbulence during flame
acceleration is studied numerically. The Navier-Stokes calculations are conducted in a …
