Study on Influence of Cavity and Water Mist on Flame Propagation of Gas Explosion in a Pipeline by Shicheng Gu, Shujie Yuan, Zhuo Yan, Xiaoxue Xu

“…The influence of the cavity with water mist on flame attenuation of gas explosion is better than that of the cavity alone. Based on theoretical analysis, it is concluded that the inhibition influence of the cavity on explosion flame propagation is mainly due to repeated reflection of flame in the cavity, which results in the attenuation of its energy. …”
