Abstract

The combustion of a premixed solid reactant is investigated using a two-step mechanism, i.e., an endothermal pyrolysis of the solid surface and a premixed gaseous flame located at a distance off the solid. Interaction between the solid burning rate and a nonuniform outer flow is analyzed as a result of unbalanced conduction of heat and diffusion of species. Considering a self-similar steady situation and using the technique of high activation energy asymptotics for the gaseous phase reaction zone, it is shown how a small rate of strain modifies the solid burning rate.
