Ethane Chemistry for Flames
In the figures below, the lines represent numerical calculation
based on the San Diego mechanism 2003/08/30, while the points represent
the experimental measurements of Humer et al., 2003.
- The strain rate at extinction plotted as a function of the
equivalence ratio of the premixed reactant stream. The results are
shown for the relative fraction of oxygen equal to 0.185
- The relative fraction of oxygen in the premixed reactant stream
plotted as a function of the strain rate at extinction. The equivalence
ratio of the premixed reactant mixture is equal to unity.
- The temperature of the inert gas stream at autoignition as a function of the strain
rate. The mole fraction of fuel and the equivalence ratio are 0.054 and unity, respectively.
- The temperature of the inert gas stream at autoignition as a function of the
relative fraction of oxygen. The equivalence ratio of the premixed reactant mixtute
is equal to unity while the strain rate is equal to 300 1/s
- Temperature and major species profiles in ethane flames
- Concentration profiles of ethane and various radicals, as well as intermediate species
at different equivalence ratios
