Zusammenfassung Ignition by electrical discharges in explosive atmospheres represents a serious safety risk in certain industrial applications. A characteristic parameter is the minimum ignition energy (MIE). Near the MIE, chemical and physical processes including flow effects interfere with the successful transition to a self-sustaining flame, leading to a statistical nature of the ignition process for a given fuel. In this work, we use numerical investigations to determine particular flow effects interacting with physiochemical processes leading to the ignition of hydrogen/air and methane/air mixtures close to the respective MIE. The results show that the hot gas kernel formed by the electrical discharge is influenced by generated vortices. The use of higher energy impacts the intake of cool gas towards the hot gas kernel by vortices significantly in case of methane. This outcome stresses the influence of flow phenomena especially on the early phase of ignition by low-energy discharges.
