✦ Synopsis


In a previous paper, 5 minimum energies for igniting mixtures of methane, oxygen, and inert gases were reported, using capacitor discharge sparks. The study has been continued for a number of other hydrocarbon gases, with various oxygen-nitrogen atmospheres; and for diethyl ether, with oxygen-nitrogen and oxygen-helium atmospheres.
