  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Thermo-Gas Dynamics of Hydrogen Combustion and Explosion

Part of the book series: Shock Wave and High Pressure Phenomena ((SHOCKWAVE))

Abstract

Due to hydrogen’s exceptional reactivity with air/oxygen oxidizers resulting in no toxic combustion products, hydrogen has been considered as a very efficient working medium for propulsion devices for a long time.
