Mechanism Generation for Hydrocarbon Fuels

ion The linear alkanes, as most simple components, provide the fundamentals of fuel modeling in the case of more complicated components (alkenes, aromatics, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, etc.). Meanwhile n-alkanes or blending of n-alkanes are by far the best studied class of compounds for which reliable, detailed chemical kinetic models for combustion exist and supposed to be the suitable s...

Hazardous Air Pollutant Emissions from the External Combustion of Hydrocarbon Gaseous Fuels Can Be Predicted!

Passage of the 1990Amendments to the Clean Air Act made it clear that maximum available control technology (“MACT”) regulations on the emission of hazardous air pollutants (“HAPS”) from process heaters and industrial boilers, used extensively in the petroleum and petrochemical industries, would be promulgated under congressional mandate by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency in the year 2...

Simulation of Combustion Field with Lattice Boltzmann Method

(Abstract • j Turbulent combustion is ubiquitously used in practical combustion devices. However, even chemically non-reacting turbulent flows are complex phenomena, and chemical reactions make the problem even more complicated. Due to the limitation of the computational costs, conventional numerical methods are impractical in carrying out direct 3D numerical simulations at high Reynolds number...
