Abstract: The possibility of initiating detonation in a closed field due to motion of its boundaries for a one-step kinetic model is studied by numerical simulation of the problems of flow of a propane-air mixture inside and outside a rotating elliptic cylinder enclosed in a circular cylinder; in rotation of a circular cylinder with parabolic blades uniformly distributed along its boundary, or in rotation of a star-shaped figure with parabolic rays originating from the center of rotation; and in a plane chamber with deformable walls. Critical parameter values for which detonation occurs are determined. A method of approximate description of the processes occurring in three-dimensional helical channels is considered. In the numerical study of these processes, software based on the Godunov scheme was used.

Keywords: initiation, detonation, rotation, numerical method, one-step kinetics, propane-air mixture.
