An analytical theory of combustion waves propagating with constant velocity (Q1569258)

The author considers the diffusion equation, which can be derived, under the assumption of similarity of the temperature and concentration fields, from the equations that describe steady flame propagation in a multicomponent premixed gas. Exact solutions to the set of diffusion and heat equations describing the process of flame propagation are presented. An analytical representation of a combustion is obtained. Formulas for the flame-front velocity are derived.
