Abstract

The problem of detonation limits for ternary mixtures of air with a two-component gaseous fuel is considered for a detonation region represented using the Le Chatelier rule. Examples are given of incorrect treatment of conditions for detonation suppression in hydrogen–air mixtures by the addition of hydrocarbons ignoring the overall composition of the mixture. It is suggested that the range of explosion hazard of lean hydrogen–air mixtures is extended by the addition of small amounts of hydrocarbon gases. Key words: detonation, detonation limits, multicomponent fuel mixtures, suppression and promotion of detonation.
