The relationships between distance from inlet boundary and inlet velocity for stoichiometric methane-air mixtures. The open circle-shaped markers mean that the inlet velocity is the same with the velocity of the deflagration wave. The open star-shaped markers mean that the inlet velocity is the same with the velocity of the detonation wave. The open diamond-shaped markers mean that the velocity can exceed the speed of sound within the reaction wave when the inlet velocity is subsonic.
