The flame cell dynamics in 2-D opposed nonpremixed tubular configuration was investigated using high-fidelity numerical simulations. The diffusive-thermal instability occurs as the $Damk{\ddot{o}}hler$ number, Da, approaches the 1-D extinction limit of the tubular flames and several flame cells are generated depending on Da, and flame radius. In general, the number of flame cells are found close to the largest wave number from the linear stability analysis. It was also found from the displacement speed analysis that during the local flame extinction and cell formation, negative edge flame speed is observed due to small gain from reaction compared to large loss from diffusion.

The characteristics of opposed nonpremixed tubular flames with radiation heat loss are investigated using linear stability analysis and 2-D numerical simulations. Two extinction limits, as the $Damk{\ddot{o}}hler$ number is small or large, are confirmed using finite difference method with a simple continuation method. It is verified that the results of linear stability analysis predict the number of flame cells and the critical Da starting cellular instability or amplification of temperature near both extinction limits with good resolution.
