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
In this paper, the critical energies required to initiate a cylindrical or spherical detonation are measured experimentally in ethylene-air mixtures at ambient conditions. These results are used to validate the critical explosion length invariance, linking the critical energies in the different geom
