Dynamics of Laterally Propagating Flames in X-ray Bursts. I. Burning Front Structure [PDF]
We investigate the structure of laterally-propagating flames through the highly-stratified burning layer in an X-ray burst. Two-dimensional hydrodynamics simulations of flame propagation are performed through a rotating plane-parallel atmosphere ...

Experimental and numerical study of the accuracy of flame-speed measurements for methane/air combustion in a slot burner [PDF]
Measuring the velocities of premixed laminar flames with precision remains a controversial issue in the combustion community. This paper studies the accuracy of such measurements in two-dimensional slot burners and shows that while methane/air flame ...

Quasi-steady stages in the process of premixed flame acceleration in narrow channels [PDF]
The present paper addresses the phenomenon of spontaneous acceleration of a pre-mixed flame front propagating in micro-channels, with subsequent deflagration-to-detonation transition. It has recently been shown experimentally [M. Wu, M. Burke, S.

Numerical simulation of flame acceleration and deflagration-to-detonation transition in hydrogen-air mixtures with concentration gradients [PDF]
The present study aims to test the capability of our newly developed density-based solver, ExplosionFoam, for flame acceleration (FA) and deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) in mixtures with concentration gradients which is of important safety ...

Flame Acceleration Enhancement by Distributed Ignition Points
This paper reports on the investigation of a novel method for promoting flame acceleration leading to detonation initiation in a tube. A common method used to initiate a detonation wave is via flame acceleration in an obstacle laden tube. Previous studies with fuel-air mixtures have shown that the measured detonation run-up distance, and corresponding ...

Influence of hydrodynamic processes on apparent flame velocity in accidental explosions [PDF]
The main impact factor of an accidental explosion is explosive pressure, the numerical value of which is determined by the magnitude of the apparent flame velocity during explosive combustion of an explosive mixture.
