Deflagrations of H2-air and CH4-air lean mixtures in a vented multi-compartment environment

Hydrogen and methane are compared on the basis of (1) their general energetic characteristics, (2) a theoretical examination of the main parameters related to the combustion phenomenon, and (3) the experimental results of the LargeView2 apparatus, where more than 300 deflagration tests were made with both gases in a vented multi-compartment container.
