Abstract

Regimes of multifront, spinning, marginal, and galloping detonation, quasi-detonation, and supersonic and subsonic (turbulent and laminar) flames are discussed. Criteria for identification of different wave regimes include not only the wave velocity or its deficit, but also the relation between the cell size (or the size of the induction zone) and the characteristic size of equipment. New applications of detonation and combustion are also discussed.
