“…Karlovitz <49) gives a turbulent flame theory derived from experiment. Olsen and Gayhart (67) state that velocity gradients of a high order actually quench the flame rather than enhance its propagation rate, thus indicating the existence of an optimum gradient for maximum flame spreading. Mickelsen and Ernstein <62) give similar results.…”

The possibility of explosions in a duct or chambers, which may contain a mixture of an explosive vapour and air, is a hazard commonly occurring in industrial plant, often necessitating a very strong and costly form of construction which would otherwise not be required. Where the structure is not strong enough to withstand explosion pressures serious damage results, frequently with injury to personnel.
