The ignition pill was developed to simulate both particle impact events and cylinder valve seat ignition. Particle impact events are simulated by iron/aluminum powder within the ignition pill. Nonmetallic promoters within the ignition pill simulate cylinder valve seat ignition. The nonmetallic promoters are also used to bind and kindle the ignition of the metallic powder. The ignition pill is used for promoted ignition testing of components.
