Technical monograph for readers with some background in combustion technology
A step towards the automatic control of explosions
The Dynamics of Combustion Systems are presented in three parts in this book. Together they provide a step towards the automatic control of explosions. The exothermic character of combustion systems, their fluid dynamic features, and explosive nature, are covered by this work which also provides a technical monograph for readers with some background in combustion technology. The book is likely to appeal to graduate students, and researchers in academia and industry.

Combustion systems are confined fields of compressible fluids where exothermic processes of combustion take place, subject to boundary conditions imposed at its borders. The subject of Dynamics of Combustion Systems is presented in three parts:
Part 1. Exothermicity – considering the thermodynamic effects due to evolution of exothermic energy in a combustion system
Chapter 1. Thermodynamic Aspects
Chapter 2. Evolutionary Aspects
Chapter 3. Heat Transfer Aspects
Chapter 4. Chemical Kinetic Aspects
Part 2. Field– exposing the dynamic properties of flow fields where the exothermic energy is deposited
Chapter 5. Aerodynamic Aspects
Chapter 6. Random Vortex Method
Chapter 7. Gasdynamic Aspects
Chapter 8. Gasdynamic Fronts
Part 3. Explosions – revealing the dynamic features of fields and fronts due to rapid deposition of exothermic energy
Chapter 9. Blast Wave Theory
Chapter 10. Self-Similar Solution
Chapter 11. Phase Space Method
Chapter 12. Detonation

From the reviews:
"This book is a nice deillegalscription and a complete survey of combustion systems where exothermic processes take place. It is written by a specialist of this field. ... Many figures or photographs illustrate the book in a nice way. ... the book is mainly devoted to physicists and engineers. They will find here some interesting values of the parameters which are involved in combustion devices such as engines. ... ends with more than twenty pages of classical or historical references."
