Abstract
A mathematical model is proposed for describing the flow of a mixture of gases and reactive solids including a heterogeneous chemical ignition reaction. The model is closed with an equation for the kinetics of oxide film growth. It is assumed that the heat of the chemical reaction can be released in both phases depending on the accommodation coefficients. The ignition of a motionless cloud of magnesium particles is studied in terms of this model. The model is tested with the use of experimental data on the maximum temperature of the medium as a function of the particle radius. Data on the dependence of the parameters of a heated particle cloud on the physical and chemical constants of the mixture and particles are presented.
