To identify the occurrence conditions of a symmetry-breaking phenomenon, numerical simulations of flame spread along parallel, combustible plates are performed. Two-dimensional, time-dependent conservation equations for gas-phase with a one-step global reaction coupled to one-dimensional heat conduc...
