N2 - This paper presents an analysis of a one-dimensional combustion model capable of describing both deflagrations and detonations. Incorporating volumetric terms to account for hydraulic and thermal losses, the quenching diameters, below which each type of combustion wave cannot propagate, are calculated. The main conclusion is that, as expected, detonations have larger quenching diameters than deflagrations for sufficiently high activation energies. However, the opposite result is found for relatively low activation energies.
