SM(21) Sep nd International Conference on Hydrogen Safety, San Sebastian, Spain  An existing algebraic flame surface wrinkling reaction model was used to investigate the quantitative dependence of turbulent flame speed on molecular transport coefficients for two-component lean fuel (CH 4 –H 2 and C 3 H 8 –H 2 ) mixtures.  The model predictions were in good quantitative agreement with the corresponding experiments, if either mean local burning velocity S L or an exponential Lewis number term of the fuel mixture is used in the reaction model. The latter approach is a generalisation of earlier findings for single fuels and shows the applicability of the exponential Le term for dual-fuel mixtures.  The hydrocarbon substitutions to H 2 mixtures are expected to suppress the leading flame edges, which are manifested by a decrease in mean local burning velocity, eventually preventing transition to detonation. Addition of hydrocarbons may also promote flame front stability of lean turbulent premixed H 2 flames. Summary
