Abstract
Numerical methods were used to study the normal combustion rate of met hane - air and hydrogen - air mixtures as a function of pressure in th e range 0.005-2.0 MPa and composition. It was found that the closer th e composition of the fuel mixture is to the limiting composition, the lower the pressure index of the normal combustion rate. It is shown th at chemical reactions in the preflame zone have no appreciable effect on the normal combustion rate of a lean methane - air mixture.
