Heat transfer during the shock-induced ignition of an explosive gas
Abstract
An experimental and theoretical study has been made of the unsteady heat transfer during the shock-induced ignition of an explosive gas. The heat flux at the end wall is obtained from measurements that were made with a thin film resistance thermometer. A separate analysis is based on the solution of the boundary layer equations in the gas near the end wall. Comparison of these results yields the instantaneous position of the reaction zone and the temperature distribution in the gas.
