The development and evolution of tulip and distorted tulip flames in closed channels were
simulated by solving the fully compressible reactive Navier–Stokes equations using a high …

Flame acceleration and deflagration-to-detonation transitions (DDT) in large obstructed
channels filled with a stoichiometric methane–air mixture are simulated using a single-step …

The functional relationship of autoignition delay time with temperature and pressure is
employed to derive the propagation velocities of autoignitive reaction fronts for particular …

Flame acceleration was investigated in an obstructed, square-cross-section channel. Flame
acceleration was promoted by an array of top and bottom surface mounted obstacles that …

Explosions caused by the rapid release of energy from the expansion of burnt gases, along
with an associated pressure rise, in an enclosure can be mitigated by venting. Many …

This paper first briefly surveys the energy releases in some major accidents. It then
examines the analyses of the explosion at the Buncefield fuel storage site in the UK, one of …

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 origins of autoignition at hot spots are analysed and the pressure pulses that arise from
them are related to knock in gasoline engines and to developing detonations in ducts. In …

The turbulent deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) process occurs when a subsonic
flame interacts with intense turbulence resulting in spontaneous acceleration and the onset …

The effects of initial pressure (P ini) on the propagation characteristics of supersonic
turbulent jets (STJ) were studied experimentally in a constant volume chamber. Based on …
