An analytical solution for the quasi-steady droplet combustion

In this paper an extension of the Shvab–Zel’dovich formulation is presented. This extended formulation, based on the Burke–Schumann kinetic mechanism, describes the combustion of multicomponent fuels in a diffusion flame in terms of mixture fraction and the excess enthalpy. Under the condition of Burke–Schumann kinetic mechanism, the multicomponent fuel is burned in a single flame. The model is applied to a diffusion flame generated by the...
