Non-Planar Fronts in Boussinesq Reactive Flows
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider the reactive Boussinesq equations in a slanted cylinder, with zero stress boundary conditions and arbitrary Rayleigh number. We show that the equations have non-planar traveling front solutions that propagate at a constant speed. We also establish uniform upper bounds on the burning rate and the flow velocity for general front-like initial data for the Cauchy problem.

Fronts in reactive convection: bounds, stability and instability
This paper examines a simplified active combustion model in which the reaction influences the flow. We consider front propagation in a reactive Boussinesq system in an infinite vertical strip. Nonlinear stability of planar fronts is established for narrow domains when the Rayleigh number is not too large. Planar fronts are shown to be linearly unstable with respect to long wavelength perturbati...
متن کاملExistence of Traveling Waves in the Stokes-boussinesq System for Reactive Flows
We consider the Stokes-Boussinesq equations in a slanted (that is, not aligned with gravity’s direction) cylinder of any dimension and with an arbitrary Rayleigh number. We prove the existence of a non-planar traveling wave solution, propagating at a constant speed, and satisfying the Dirichlet boundary condition in the velocity and the Neumann condition in the temperature.
متن کاملTraveling Waves in 2d Reactive Boussinesq Systems with No-slip Boundary Conditions
We consider systems of reactive Boussinesq equations in two dimensional strips that are not aligned with gravity’s direction. We prove that for any width of such strips and for arbitrary Rayleigh and Prandtl numbers, the systems admit smooth, non-planar traveling wave solutions with the fluid’s velocity satisfying no-slip boundary conditions.
متن کاملStability of planar reactive fronts in external fields
Differential flows of species, which may arise in reactive systems due to external fields such as electric fields or pressure gradients, may significantly affect the characteristics and stability of propagating fronts. A generalized Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation describing the dynamics of perturbations of a planar front in systems with differential flows is derived and analyzed. The analysis sh...
متن کاملTraveling Waves of Some Symmetric Planar Flows of Non-Newtonian Fluids
We present some variants of Burgers-type equations for incompressible and isothermal planar flow of viscous non-Newtonian fluids based on the Cross, the Carreau and the power-law rheology models, and on a symmetry assumption on the flow. We numerically solve the associated traveling wave equations by using industrial data and in order to validate the models we prove existence and uniqueness of ...
