Analysis of Thermal Stability in a Convecting and Radiating Two-Step Reactive Slab

This paper investigates the combined effects of convective and radiative heat loss on thermal stability of a rectangular slab of combustible materials with internal heat generation due to a two-step exothermic chemical reaction, taking the diffusion of the reactant into account and assuming a variab...
