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 ...

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.

On the Evolution of Thermonuclear Flames on Large Scales [PDF]
The thermonuclear explosion of a massive white dwarf in a Type Ia supernova explosion is characterized by vastly disparate spatial and temporal scales. The extreme dynamic range inherent to the problem prevents the use of direct numerical simulation and ...

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 ...

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.
