Abstract: | Regular self-ignition of hydrogen and kerosene was registered upon their mixing with oxygen-enriched air in a straight-flow
vortex, chamber of planar-radial geometry. These fuel components were injected into the chamber from tanks with room temperature
and pressure 4–10 MPa. The velocity, pressure, and temperature fields in the chamber were studied using experimental methods
and numerical modeling on the basis of full Navier-Stokes equations. The measurment and calculation showed that a region of
elevated temperatures appears in an unsteady vortex flow. The calculation was performed for Reynolds number up to 5·103 and revealed an increase in temperature with increase in Reynolds number. Nevertheless, both the calculated and measured
temperatures were lower than the known self-ignition temperatures. The nature of the ignition, observed remains unclear.
