Continuous representation for shell models of turbulence

In this work we construct and analyze continuous hydrodynamic models in one space dimension, which are induced by shell models of turbulence. After Fourier transformation, such continuous models split into an infinite number of uncoupled subsystems, which are all identical to the same shell model. The two shell models, which allow such a...

Recovery of light oil by air injection

In this paper we review the results of analytical, numerical and experimental studies related to air injection into porous medium containing initially light oil, water and gas at medium pressure conditions. The new combustion mechanism is described, where the process of the medium temperature oxidation interacts with the oil vaporization...

Resonance in Low-Temperature Oxidation Waves for Porous Media

This paper analyzes traveling wave profiles possessing an internal resonance point for a class of systems of partial differential equations describing oxidation and vaporization of liquid fuel in a porous medium when an oxidizer (air) is injected. It is shown that the resonance is characterized by a saddle point of an associated vector field...
