It is known that inflammation of a tangential jet of fuel in a supersonic flow is accompanied by an increase in pressure. To study the process of inflammation and combustion of a jet of hydrogen in a supersonic flow near a wall, the so-called ''parabolized'' Navier-Stokes equations (a step method for numerical integration of which is proposed in application to the combustion of a flat supersonic jet of hydrogen in a supersonic comoving flow) are used. It is found that turbulent pulsations must be included not only to determine the delay of inflammation, but also at the concluding stage of inflammation, accompanying energetic heat liberation.
