Abstract
The problem of defining the conditions of spontaneous combustion of powdered materials under oxidation for reaction of v-order and a wide range of heat and mass exchange parameters has been solved in this paper. The mathematical model tested on the laboratory apparatus and the test rig allows to calculate and to predict the behaviour of bulk powdered porous stuff of any dimensions and shape during its processing, transportation or storage.
