Abstract
A review of high-temperature hydrocarbon oxidation in combustion systems discusses the reaction mechanisms for specific fuels - from hydrogen to n-butane - emphasizing the hierarchical structure of the mechanisms for complex fuels in order to develop the concept of a comprehensive mechanism. In relating kinetic models to real combustion systems, the study begins with purely kinetic thermodynamic applications that neglect transport effects such as diffusion of heat and mass (as in shock tubes, detonations, plug flow reactors, and stirred reactors). It then describes laminar flames, the coupling between diffusive transport and chemical kinetics, and applying laminar flame models to practical combustion problems.
