Supervisor’s research interests

• Acceleration of flame in hydrogen-air and hydrocarbon-air mixtures
• Mechanisms of flame instability and their influence on the dynamics of propagation
• The interaction of the flame front with obstacles and walls

Research highlights

Research is carried out using unique 13Y3 and VBK-2 explosive chambers, allowing large-scale experiments at the Institute
