Modeling of a Double Gas Hydrate Particle Ignition

Applied Sciences, 2022
This paper presents the numerical research findings for the conditions and characteristics of methane-propane hydrate particle ignition. The curves of the ignition delay times of a hydrate particle versus its size and ambient temperature were obtained ...

Uncertainties and robustness of the ignition process in type Ia supernovae

, 2010
It is widely accepted that the onset of the explosive carbon burning in the core of a CO WD triggers the ignition of a SN Ia. The features of the ignition are among the few free parameters of the SN Ia explosion theory.

Reduction of Oxide Inclusions During the High‐Frequency Welding of Steel via a Nonthermal Ar/H2 Plasma Jet

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
High‐frequency (HF) welding of steel is limited by oxide inclusions that degrade weld quality. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the integration of a nonthermal Ar/H2 dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma jet into HF welding. Local plasma treatment provides effective shielding and in‐situ oxide reduction, resulting in markedly fewer and ...

Combustion and Thermal Behavior of Selected Metallic Fuels Used in Pyrotechnic Compositions

Energies
Metal powders have both a high specific energy and a high energy density, which explains their widespread use in energetic materials (propellants, explosives and pyrotechnics).

Quantifying Litter Bed Ignitability: Comparison of a Laboratory and Field Method

Fire, 2023
Understanding the conditions when litter beds will ignite from firebrands is critical for predicting spot fire occurrence. Such research is either field- or laboratory-based, with limited analysis to compare the approaches.

Influence of an Argon/Silane Atmosphere on the Temperature of a Thermal Plasma

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The influence of a silane‐doped argon atmosphere on the chemical composition and temperature of a thermal nontransferring argon plasma is investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. As a result of the high amount of free electrons resulting from the stepwise ionization and dissociation of the silane molecule, even a silane addition of 0.01 vol ...
