This paper examines the influence of convective instability on the reaction front propagation in porous media. The model includes heat and concentration equations and motion equations under Boussinesq approximation. The non-stationary Darcy equation is adopted and the fluid is supposed to be incompressible. Numerical results are performed via the dispersion relation. The simulations show that the propogating reaction front loses stability as Vadasz number increase, it shows also more stability is gained when Zeldovich number increased.
