Recently, Prof. Bin Yang and Prof. Yu Cheng Liu of Center for Combustion Energy presented final reports on their 2024 National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) surface projects. After comprehensive evaluation, both projects were rated “Excellent” and the two principle investigators have been invited to deliver talks at the 2025 Annual Academic Conference of the Chinese Society of En...

Among diverse modes of flame propagation in smooth channels, supersonic high-speed deflagrations, which have a high propensity to transition to detonation after a transient acceleration, have been rarely studied. Recently, a work entitled “On the stabilization mechanism of high-speed deflagrations in narrow channels with heat loss” has been published in the “Proceedings of the Combustion Ins...
