Summary
Chapters 2–6 focused on disturbances in combustor environments and how they evolve in space and time. This chapter initiates the second section of this book, Chapters 7–9, which focus on reactive processes and their interactions with the flow. The flame acts as a volume/energy source that leads to rapid changes in flow properties or their derivatives, such as velocity, vorticity, or entropy. Wrinkling on the flame also leads to modification of the approach flow velocity field.
