We discuss the fast-reaction limit of a two-scale reaction–diffusion model. We point out that if the reaction constant a explodes to infinity, then a two-scale PDE system with free boundary at the micro cell is obtained. The aim of this note is to answer the question: Can the same two-scale free-boundary problem be obtained if we first pass to the fast-reaction limit a→∞ and then take the homogenisation...
