Fuels Combustion Research.
Abstract
A high temperature sampling system for the Princeton flow reactor has been developed. Initial results have been obtained on the oxidation of toluene Benzaldehyde forms as an important intermediate and then the process becomes one of the oxidizing formly and phenyl reactions. The effects of oxygen index and temperature on sooting diffusion flames have been studied. Results indicate that the stoichiometric flame temperature dominates the sooting tendency and that the C4 and C5 olefine and diolefins and the aromatics are the most dominant sooting fuels. In development, as well are a powerful family of sensitivity analysis tools to quantitatively address the complex interaction between a combustion system's chemical and transport component.
