Calculation of parameters of the fire and inflammation of methane with chlorine
The possibility of using the mathematical model of the photothermal explosion, developed on the basis of the analysis of the kinetics and the radical chain mechanism of the multistage methane photochlorination reaction, is shown to calculate fire hazard parameters. The calculation of the concentration limits of ignition, the critical intensity of UV radiation and the autoignition temperature for mixtures of methane and chlorine by the photothermal ignition model is carried out. The model correctly reflects the ignition process, and the results of the calculation as a whole are consistent with the data obtained experimentally.
