Abstract
Popular theoretical models of turbulent premixed flames suggest, when exten ded to varying turbulence spectra, that the fractal dimension should vary g reatly with the turbulence spectrum slope. On the other hand, it has been p roposed that there is some robustness in the fractal dimension observed in experiments. we show here numerical simulations of a simplified model, exhi biting fronts submitted to different spectra with a relatively constant fra ctal dimension.
