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 s

โฆ Synopsis
Thermal stability of reacting masses of slab and cylindrical form, having parts of their surfaces insulated and the remainder offering no resistance to heat transfer, is investigated; only symmetrically heated reactants are considered. It is assumed that the ratio of insulation size to slab width or cylindrical radius is small; perturbation expansions are used to determine the critical Frank-Kamenetskii parameter as a series in terms of this ratio.
