Abstract:As a representative renewable biofuel, ethanol can reduce mankind’s dependence on petroleum resources and the emission of greenhouse gases and other pollutants. In recent years, the application of ethanol in the aviation field has begun to be a concern of scholars. As ethanol is a flammable liquid, it is significant to study its explosion characteristics in aviation conditions from a safety perspective. In this work, at 20 kPa, the explosion characteristics of ethanol–air mixtures (concentration 6~12%) were ex… Show more
