Reaction-diffusion fronts in heterogeneous combustion

Heterogeneous flames are modeled in a simplified system where the fuel particles are discrete heat sources embedded in an inert, heat conducting medium. Two asymptotic regimes of flame propagation are found and exhibit differences in both the propagation limits and the front speeds. When the flame t...
