Pulsating Instabilities of Combustion Waves in a Chain-Branching Reaction Model

Abstract: In this paper we investigate the properties and linear stability of traveling premixed combustion waves and the formation of pulsating combustion waves in a model with two-step chain-branching reaction mechanism. These calculations are undertaken in the adiabatic limit, in one spatial dimension and for the case of arbitrary Lewis numbers for fuel and radicals. It is shown that the Lewis number for fuel has a significant effect on the properties and stability of premixed flames, whereas varying the Lewis number… Show more

“…The case m = 0 also exhibits extinction. It seems to be a characteristic of the chain-branching kinetics, not seen in the one-step model, that the flame becomes unstable to extinction before reaching the theoretical flammability limit for Le F > 1 cases [42]. The role of the differential diffusion of the radical is completely reversed for Le F > 1 in comparison to Le F < 1.…”
