Abstract

A study is made of the response of a diffusion flame sheet to perturbations of reactant concentration which are introduced, either as changes in the free streams, or as appropriate initial distributions throughout the field. Species’ and energy conservation requirements are approximated by linearized boundary-layer equations; general solutions are derived for species, enthalpy and temperature distributions, as well as for the flame sheet shape, and a number of specific problems are solved.
