Abstract

The effectiveness of acoustic absorbing wall materials in delaying the onset of detonation in gases is explored. Experiments are reported for stoichiometric H2–O2 mixtures in two-inch diameter cylindrical tubes. The results show that the detonation induction distance may be increased by as much as a factor of two by making the walls of the tube of porous sintered bronze.
