✦ Synopsis

The thermal stability of reacting masses of varied geometries with partial insulation is examined. Upper and lower bounds for the critical value of the Frank-Kamenetskii parameter are determined, and numerical values for this parameter are obtained when the reactant takes the form of a long rod of square (or rectangular, for one aspect ratio) cross section. This parameter provides a useful criterion for the safe storage of reactive materials.
