The Process of Ignition and Combustion of Hydrogen in a Supersonic Flow,

Abstract

The report examines results of an experimental study of the combustion of hydrogen in a cylindrical wind tunnel with entrance Mach number of 3.5, connected to gas preheater (T < 2100 K). The complexity of the pattern of flow, which is realized with the injection of streams of hydrogen from wall, does not make it possible for the full theoretical analysis of the problem of spontaneous ignition and combustion. In connection with this were carried out the calculations of ignition for free and near-wall boundary layers.
