AN ALTERNATIVE METHOD FOR MINIMUM IGNITION ENERGY EVALUATION OF GASEOUS MIXTURE
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii din Bucuresti. Chimie - Year 2001, Vol 10, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents the issues highlighted by minimum ignition energy of gaseous explosive mixtures determination. As an alternative for minimum ignition energy evaluation a correlation model with the quenching distance, a more accessible parameter from an experimental point of view, is analysed. The paper also discusses the possibility of minimum ignition energy application, with respect to other parameters, in explosivity class sub-grouping of various explosive mixtures.
