Download or read book Mathematical Modeling in Combustion Science written by John D. Buckmaster and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-12 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important new area of current research in combustion science is reviewed in the contributions to this volume. The complicated phenomena of combustion, such as chemical reactions, heat and mass transfer, and gaseous flows, have so far been studied predominantly by experiment and by phenomenological approaches. But asymptotic analysis and other recent developments are rapidly changing this situation. The contributions in this volume are devoted to mathematical modeling in three areas: high Mach number combustion, complex chemistry and physics, and flame modeling in small scale turbulent flow combustion.
