Computational Kinetics and Sensitivity Analysis of Hydrogen-Oxygen Combustion,

Abstract

Kinetic modeling calculations on the H2-02 system have been carried out with an extensive reaction set to probe the vicinity of the three explosion limits. Sensitivity analysis is used throughout this investigation to study system behavior, in particular, to elucidate mechanistic details. The concentrations and sensitivity profiles are discussed in light of the appropriate experimental results and existing theories of hydrogen combustion. The results indicate the present model to be useful over a wide pressure-temperature range.
