A Summary of the Status of Research on the Mechanism of Combustion

摘要

The purpose of the report is 'to provide a survey of information available on chemical reactions which may be of interest for rocket and ram-jet propulsion systems; information is particularly desired on studies leading to the elucidation of mechanisms of gas-phase oxidation reactions, including investigations of the initiation of reaction, explosion limits, flame propagation and stability, nature of reaction intermediates, and of accelerating and inhibiting agents.'
