As initial tee approaches to the critical value,
the average waiting time of thermal explosion dramati-
cally reduced. The critical temperature essentially
depends on parameter of thermal inertiagranule.
From the Figure 8 it is ev ident that averag e delay time
of thermal explosion depends on the parameter of ther-
mal relaxation of the granule.

Method of numerical simulation of random temperatue
of granules with internal heat source in surrounding l-

of random Gauian process with an exponentially de-
caying autocorrelation function is suggested. Autocorre-
lation function and dispersions of temperature fluctua-
tions without heat generation obtained by the numerical
simulation are compared with the exact formulas, found
by spectral analysis of stochastic processes.
Analysis of the influence of the fluid temperature
fluctuations on the process of thermal explosion is car-
ried out. Dynamics of thermal

tuations are investigated.
Based on direct numerical simulations, the average
waiting time of thermal explosion is investigated. Effect
of stochastic drift of the granule temperature to its critic
lue is found.
Further research in the area of numerical simulation is
possible to be carried out in two directions. Firstly, it is the
use of the actual kinetic schemes, the Fischer-Tropsch
synthesis, on cobalt catalysts. The second direction of

ized by the log-normal distribution.
