Physical and Chemical Process in Flames
Abstract
The objectives of the present program are to develop detailed and simplified chemical kinetics models for hydrocarbon combustion, and to understand and quantify the dynamics of flames. During the reporting period progress were made in the following projects: (1) Skeletal reduction using sensitivity analysis aided by directed relation graph; (2) derivation of analytical solution of quasi-steady state species using directed graph; (3) derivation of a reduced mechanism for lean premixed methane/air flames; (4) extinction and stability analyses of diffusion flames with radiation heat loss; and (5) study of the response of premixed flames to velocity fluctuations with flame stretch effects.
