A THEORETICAL ANALYSIS OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROCESSES IN AN OZONE FLAME,

Abstract

New theoretical solutions of the one-dimensional time independent hydrodynamic equation for an ozone flame are reported. Marked differences in comparison with previous solutions are shown to be the result of removing some approximations. The solution curves are analyzed to permit discussion of the following topics: (1) the eigenvalue character of the problem; (2) the treatment and significance of deviations from the kinetic steady-state; (3) the qualitative character of free-radical curves; (4) the role of radical recombination; (5) the relative importance of different processes of energy transport; (6) the use of the approximation of constant specific enthalpy; (7) the relative importance of heat-release by radical recombination; (8) the spatial separation of flame processes; (9) the role of diffusion; (10) the significance of kinetic energy of overall gas-flow; (11) the use of theoretical analysis of flames as a means of studying high temperature reactions.
