It is now well known that an accreting white dwarf experiences a shell flash near its suface. Such phenomena are related with rekindling of white dwarfs, slow and fast nova explosions etc. depending on its strength. Though many authors computed evolution through such shell flashes, they treated them only under specific conditions.
