TL;DR: In this paper, various topics in the area of combustion and explosives are discussed, including basic physical concepts of the science of combustion, the time-independent theory of thermal explosions, time-dependent statement of the problem of the initiation of chemical reaction waves in fuel mixtures, laminar flames, complex and chain reactions in flames, the gas dynamics of combustion dynamics, and diffusional combustion of gases.

The general subjects considered include: basic physical concepts of the science of combustion, the time-independent theory of thermal explosions, time-dependent statement of the problem of the initiation of chemical reaction waves in fuel mixtures, laminar flames, complex and chain reactions in flames, the gas dynamics of combustion, and diffusional combustion of gases. 561 references.

TL;DR: In this article, a compilation of kinetic data on elementary, homogeneous, gas phase reactions of neutral species involved in combustion systems has been presented under the auspices of the European Community Energy Research and Development Program.
Abstract: This compilation updates and expands a previous evaluation of kinetic data on elementary, homogeneous, gas phase reactions of neutral species involved in combustion systems [J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 21, 411 (1992)]. The work has been carried out under the auspices of the European Community Energy Research and Development Program. Data sheets are presented for some 78 reactions and two tables in which preferred rate parameters are presented for reactions of ethyl, i‐propyl, t‐butyl, and allyl radicals are given. Each data sheet sets our relevant thermodynamic data, experimental kinetic data, references, and recommended rate parameters with their error limits. A table summarizing the recommended rate data is also given. The new reactions fall into two categories: first, to expand the previous compilation relating largely to the combustion in air of methane, ethane and aromatic compounds; and second, provide data for some of the key radicals involved in the combustion of higher alkanes.
