Impact of curvature on the kinematic response of small flames

The objective of the study is to investigate the impact of curvature on the kinematic response of an axisymmetric curved laminar premixed flame, utilizing a phenomenological relationship between the curvature and the laminar burning velocity. The reference and the perturbed flame shapes are obtained by numerically or analytically integrating the flame kinematics equations. The steady reference flame shape deviates gradually from that obtained...
