The determination of ignition conditions

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

A simple method of determining the conditions for ignition, based on linearization of the resulting nonlinear equations, is presented. Good agreement is obtained between the exact conditions and the approximate conditions given by the linearization method. A physical interpretation of the new method is offered.
