A full analysis is given for planar steady flames under the following model chemistry:
A + B —> 2B
2B —> Products
The analysis is asymptotic, based on large activation energy of the first reaction, and the smallness of a certain other parameter. This is followed by a mathematically rigorous analysis justifying the asymptotics. Of especial interest is the regime where the first reversible reaction is in partial equilibrium. Parameter values leading to that regime are delineated. The forward first reaction can be either exothermic or endothermic.
