17. Radiation driven combustion of evaporated EMs is a source of information about the combustion mechanism. Self-sustaining combustion regime fails for the EMs with significant heat release in the condensed phase and evaporation on the burning surface due to formation of temperature maximum in subsurface layer. CONCLUSIONS

18. CONCLUSIONS (cont’d) Melting heat makes effect on the stability of self-sustaining combustion: the larger the values of Q m and ∆T = T s -T m, the narrower combustion stability domain. Stability of transition from ignition to stationary self-sustaining combustion depends on the steepness of radiant flux cut-off and transparency of EM.

19. CONCLUSIONS (cont’d) Further development of theoretical knowledge on transient combustion regimes urgently needs experimental substantiation. This, in turn, takes essential improvement of experimental techniques for measuring instantaneous burning rate and structure of the combustion wave.
