contents Aspects of predictions of activation-energy asymptotics concerning the dependence of the burning velocity on the equivalence ratio are examined here through both asymptotic analyses and numerical computation. In typical hydrocarbon-air flames, the burning velocity achieves its maximum value for fuel-rich mixture, the cause being generally attributed to the effects of detailed chemical kinetics and unequal diffusivities of the reactants. The present results demonstrate the possibility of this attribute of the burning velocity occurring even when these two effects are absent. This is accomplished by parametrically studying the burning-velocity formula valid for all equivalence ratios under the conditions specified in the title of this article, with special attention paid to implications for hydrocarbon-air flames.
