A computational model of three-dimensional, time-dependent flame spread in a microgravity environment is presented. The solid is assumed to be a thermally thin, pyrolysing cellulosic sheet. The gas-phase model includes the full Navier-Stokes equations with density and pressure variations and a six-f
The changes in the mechanisms controlling microgravity flame spread over cellulosic fuels are studied, as the forced gas flow opposing the flame spread and the solid thickness are varied. The analysis is based on the numerical simulation of the problem by means of a two-dimensional, nonconstant spre
