In the present work, rapid plasma-stimulated ignition of liquid hydrocarbons was carried out in still air under conditions of surface microwave discharge. It was shown that, depending on the microwave input power, the breakdown time changed in a range from 5 to 30μs, ignition occurred on an antenna in the area of the surface microwave discharge at a temperature not exceeding 1000 K, and the speed of the front boundary propagation of the intense ignition region near the antenna was 300 m s$^{−1}$.
