Thomas, P.H. and Bowes, P.C., 1965. THERMAL IGNITION IN THE HOLLOW CIRCULAR CYLINDER HEATED ON THE INNER FACE. Fire Research Notes 585


ABSTRACT

The critical conditions for thermal ignition in a reactive solid in the form of a hollow cylinder with the inner face maintained at a constant high temperature are calculated. Application to the practical case of combustible lagging on a hot pipe is illustrated briefly.
