Conference Paper Description

We present results of fully compressible Navier-Stokes simulations of pulsating flame instability in two dimensions using single-step, first-order Arrhenius kinetics. Model parameters correspond to Ze = 9:5, Le = 10, and flame Mach numbers M between 4:62 × 10 and 2:31 × 10. The results show that the pulsating instability in two dimensions creates three types of transverse waves: spontaneous waves, deflagrations, and detonations. All three types of waves can coexist for the same reactive system, but transverse detonations become more likely as M increases. They propagate inside the large preheat zone of the pulsating flame and do not spread into cold material.
