2. Subsonic combustion propagation: laminar and turbulent deflagrations
2.1 Laminar deflagration
Let's take our reactive wave model from figure 2. When combustion is slow (low velocity D ), the fresh gases have time to expand so that the transformation is quasi-isobaric. Due to this expansion, deflagration sets the fresh gases in motion in front of the combustion front (U1 > 0). If we close the end on the burnt gas side (Ub = 0) and call VF instead of D the apparent velocity of the front (velocity relative to a fixed observer), the equations
