Combustion, as it is well known, is based on chemical reactions. If we look at a clear scientific definition of the term “combustion”, then combustion will be a process of rapid high-temperature oxidation, combining physical and chemical phenomena. Combustion consists of a large number of elementary redox processes leading to the redistribution of valence electrons between atoms of interacting substances.Modern theories of combustion relate flame spreading in gases to chemical chain reactions[1]. Nowadays, in a view of the wide spread of gas, understanding of a ship fuel and analysis of gas related problems of combustion are more and more critical. Gas itself is not able to ignite in a combustion chamber as a conventional fuel just because of compression and temperature rising. It requires a strong and efficient source of fire. The article is focused on analyzing igniting, flame spreading and detonation in a combustion chamber. The detonation condition was assessed in case of using gas as ships fuel.
