                         extinction of diffusion flames established by burning of 
                         multicomponent fuel (n-heptane diffusion flame enriched with 
                         hydrogen). By presuming one-global-step reactions with large 
                         activation energy, the zone where all reactions take place is 
                         described by largeactivation-energy asymptotics. In this study, it 
                         is also supposed that the values of the Damko¨hler numbers for the 
                         reactions are very close and the values of the activation energies 
                         are also very close. Under these conditions, all reactions will be 
                         performed inside the same region. The results show that the 
                         reaction with small Damko¨hler number and=or large activation 
                         energy controls the extinction of the multicomponent-fuel 
                         diffusion flame. Under the condition of equal Damko¨hler numbers
