The present paper describes some new results for the critical energy for direct initiation of detonations in acetylene-oxygen mixtures using electrical sparks. The present spark energies represent the true effective initiation energies, independent of discharge characteristics and electrode configur

The present paper demonstrates that the effective and hence the true critical energy E,. for direct initiation of gaseous detonations using electrical sparks corresponds to the total energy deposited into the gas up to the time trofthe peak averaged power, i.e., (E(t)/t)max, of the spark. The energy
An experimental stirred tank apparatus was developed to study the initial reaction pathways and mechanisms of both gas-liquid and gas-liquid-solid systems. This pulse-injection flow reactor exploits the vessel's residence time distribution to obtain a series of isothermal samples of well defined res
