Interruption of detonation wave propagation in the air–gas mixtures of unitary fuel as a layer of inhomogeneous inert particles

This paper describes the results of a numerical study pertaining to the interruption of detonation wave propagation in air–gas mixtures of unitary fuel as a layer of inhomogeneous inert particles. It is shown that the layer diameter, layer length, and the inhomogeneity of inert particles affect this process. It is revealed that, if the total mass of the mixture is fixed, a layer with a linearly decreasing concentration of inert particles attenuates detonation waves much better than that a linearly increasing and uniform concentration of inert particles.
