Combustion is a reactive oxidation process that releases energy bound in chemical
compounds used as fuels─ energy that is needed for power generation, transportation …

Combustion involves chemical reactions that are often highly exothermic. Combustion
systems utilize the energy of chemical compounds released during this reactive process for …

Combustion, the process of burning, is defined as a chemical reaction between a
combustible reactant (the fuel) and an oxidizing agent (such as air) in order to produce heat …

TaggedPThis perspective article intends to show opportunities and provide food for
discussion regarding some specific developments in the field of combustion. It reflects the …

Publisher Summary The general oxidation chemistry of alkanes and of alkyl radicals is well
understood, although many of the detailed aspects are still speculative. This chapter …

This book begins with a survey of conventional fuels, followed by a suggested classification
of appropriate alternative fuels. The chemical fuels are explored in terms of their nature …

Over the last 20 to 25 years theoretical chemistry (particularly theoretical chemical kinetics)
has played an increasingly important role in developing chemical kinetics models for …

Detailed study of the rates and mechanisms of combustion reactions has not been in the
mainstream of combustion research until the recent recognition that further progress in …

The current state and challenges of advanced experimental and modeling methods for a
better understanding of heterogeneous chemical reactions are discussed using examples …

In this paper, the state of combustion is evaluated and its prospect as a vibrant branch of
science is assessed. It is first demonstrated that much progress has been made on the …
