The influence of swirl on the shape of the Burke-Schumann reaction sheet in a straight cylindrical pipe is investigated by asymptotic and numerical means. Attention is confined to swirl levels that are near the critical value at which vortex breakdown occurs. A high-Reynolds-number, laminar, isothermal, low-Mach-number reacting flow is considered. An asymptotic analysis is developed to study the nonlinear...
