Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

Numerical solutions are presented for the case of a thermal explosion in a sphere, in which the thermal conductivity varies linearly with temperature. The behaviour of the critical temperature profiles and of the other critical parameters for variations in the thermal conductivity are demonstrated.
