DESCRIPTION:A reacting fluid in a closed vessel may lead to a thermal runa
 way if the rate of heat generation exceeds that of heat removal at the rea
 ctor wall. Natural convection\, arising due to the density difference betw
 een the heated and cooled parts of the fluid\, can delay or suppress an ex
 plosion. Such an effect will be analysed using time scales of the heating 
 and cooling mechanisms in the system.
