Abstract
This paper presents results from experiments on flame propagation in inhomogeneous and homogeneous hydrogen-air mixtures at 1 atm in a channel. The objective of the present work is to study the ininitial phase of the flame propagation and to determine the onset of flame instability (i.e. cellularity).
