IIRC, in the rule you can divide the DDT runup distance on atmospheric pressure by the amount X mix.
If a certain fuel has a runup distance of 100" at atmospheric pressure, then a 2x mix would only need 50", a 3x mix 33, 4x mix 25" and so on.
Im not sure about what I stated above.
Its just a vague memory. |

A vague memory indeed, from way back when people actually thought that 4x was approaching DDT.
In reality, the Nx has very little effect on the DDT runup distance of propane/air mixes. The increased pressure decreases burn rate, and the increased temperature of higher mixes just barely overcomes that effect. A 20x mix might burn a few m/s faster, but not enough to be really worrisome. |
