Abstract

The main cause of the previously unexplainable most important features of gas-phase combustion was determined. It was shown that the sharp acceleration of combustion during heating and the high rates are primarily caused not by an increase in the rate constant of the limiting step, as was previously believed, but by an increase in the concentration of active intermediate particles with temperature as an exponential function of a positive exponential function of the Boltzmann factor. Such a character of the temperature dependence governs the transition from combustion to explosion and detonation.
