Investigation on Premixed Hydrogen/air Explosion in Closed Pipeline

The acceleration of flame inside a pipe is a complex phenomenon involving several variables spanning from fuel nature, mixture composition and geometrical characteristics of the pipe itself such as length, wall roughness or presence of obstacles. One of the key parameters governing the process of...
