CONJUGATE PROBLEM OF THERMAL EXPLOSION R. Sh. Gainutdinov UDC 536.46 The problem of thermal explosion of a reagent in the form a plane layer placed between two plane-parallel inert walls is solved analytically under boundary conditions of the third kind. Critical conditions for thermal explosion for the general case and particular cases are investigated. Results of calculations are compared with previously published data. An engineering method for evaluation of the critical conditions for thermal explosion is proposed. JEPTER7492019993 JEPTER749203
