On disintegration of lean hydrogen flames in narrow gaps
Jorge Yanez, Leonid Kagan, Mike Kuznetsov +1
The disintegration of near limit flames propagating through the gap of Hele-Shaw cells has recently become a subject of active research. In this paper, the flamelets resulting from…
On dynamics of gasless combustion in slowly varying periodic media: periodic fronts, their stability and propagation-extinction-diffusion-reignition pattern
Amanda Matson, Leonid Kagan, Claude-Michel Brauner +2
In this paper we consider a classical model of gasless combustion in a one dimensional formulation under the assumption of ignition temperature kinetics. We study the propagation o…
Modeling of 2D self-drifting flame-balls in Hele-Shaw cells
Jorge Yanez, Leonid Kagan, Gregory Sivashinsky +1
The disintegration of near limit flames propagating through the gap of Hele-Shaw cells has recently become a subject of active research. In this paper, the flamelets resulting from…
Strongly nonlinear asymptotic model of cellular instabilities in premixed flames with stepwise ignition temperature kinetics
Nathan Kilker, Dmitry Golovaty, Peter V. Gordon +2
In this paper we consider ignition-temperature, first-order reaction model of thermo-diffusive combustion that describes dynamics of thick flames arising in a theory of combustion…
