Abstract

One-dimensional nonstationary flows of a combustible mixture of gases are considered with allowance for nonlinear heat conduction. The possible existence of similarity solutions is studied, and conditions are found under which such solutions do exist. The results are given of a numerical calculation of the similarity problems of a piston and self-sustaining thermal wave.
