A detonation wave in the system liquid-gas bubbles
Abstract
The shock-wave ignition of a system consisting of a liquid (H2O) and bubbles of an explosive gas mixture (C2H2+2.5O2) is investigated experimentally and analytically. The possibility of the existence of a detonation wave, a supersonic self-sustaining process, in a gas-liquid system is demonstrated. The conditions for the existence of a detonation wave are determined, and the initiation mechanism is analyzed.
