Deflagration definition
Deflagration means the propagation of a Combustion zone at a velocity which is less than the speed of sound in the unreacted medium.
Deflagration means an explosive reaction such as a rapid combustion that moves through an explosive material at a velocity less than the speed of sound in the material.
Deflagration means an explosive reaction such as a rapid combustion that moves through an explosives material at a velocity less than the speed of sound in that material;
Examples of Deflagration in a sentence
Deflagration (low-order) is the Project’s preferred method for UXO clearance and, based on current industry knowledge and precedent set by other offshore wind farms (e.g. Sofia Offshore Wind Farm (▇▇▇▇▇ Offshore Wind Farm UXO Clearance Marine Licence Application) (GoBe, 2021) MLA/2020/00489), is considered the realistic worst case scenario.
More Definitions of Deflagration
Deflagration means a rapid chemical reaction in which the output of heat is enough to enable the reaction to proceed and be accelerated without input of heat from another source. Deflagration is a surface phenomenon with the reaction products flowing away from the unreacted material along the surface at subsonic velocity. The effect of a true deflagration under confinement is an explosion. Confinement of the reaction increases pressure, rate of reaction and temperature, and may cause transition into a detonation.
Deflagration means an explosion which propagates at subsonic speed (see EN 1127-1:1997);
Deflagration means an explosive reaction in the form of a rapid combustion that moves through an explosive material at a velocity less than the speed of sound in the material;
Deflagration means an exothermic reaction, such as the extremely rapid oxidation of a flammable dust or vapor in air, in which the reaction progresses through the unburned material at a rate less than the velocity of sound. A deflagration can have an explosive effect.
Deflagration means the subsonic combustion—that is exothermic chemical reactions— that usually propagates through thermal conductivity, that is, hot burning materials heat the next layer of cold materials and ignites them.
Deflagration means an explosive reaction such as a rapid combustion that
Deflagration means an ex- plosive reaction such as a rapid com- bustion that moves through an explo- sive material at a velocity less than the speed of sound in the material.
