Abstract
The glow and explosion limits of the CO and O2 system are calculated in wide ranges of composition, water content, surface efficiency, temperature and pressure. The boundary of the oscillatory region in the P-T plane is theoretically predicted. Results are compared with the existing experimental data. The well-known experimental observation that traces of water sensitively affect the oxidation process of carbon monoxide is quantitatively examined and verified.
