Abstract

The competition between chain propagation and chain termination reactions was shown to play an important role in gas-phase combustion. Conditions under which this competition to a substantial extent determined the critical ignition conditions and the rate of the process were analyzed. Examples that showed that ignoring the role played by chain propagation, chain termination, and chain branching reactions in branched-chain processes led to conclusions that contradicted experimental data were considered.
