Chemical kinetic modeling of high temperature hydrocarbon oxidation in combustion is
reviewed. First, reaction mechanisms for specific fuels are discussed, with emphasis on the …

Chemical kinetic modeling is an important tool in the analysis of many combustion systems.
The use of detailed kinetic models in the interpretation of fundamental kinetics experiments …

ABSTRACT A detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been developed to describe the
oxidation of small hydrocarbon and oxygenated hydrocarbon species. The reactivity of these …

New experimental profiles of stable species concentrations are reported for formaldehyde
oxidation in a variable pressure flow reactor at initial temperatures of 850–950 K and at …

We have modeled the experimental data of Bartok et al. and Duterque et al. on methane
combustion in stirred reactors. A method to calculate the first-order sensitivities of the mole …

This chapter is a critical survey of reaction rate coefficient data important in describing high-
temperature combustion of H 2, CO, and small hydrocarbons up to C 4. A recommended …

A chemical kinetic model for the oxidation of acetylene is presented. The model is usedto
calculate flame speeds for adiabatic, freely propagating flames, composition profiles for lean …

Using FM spectroscopy formyl radicals were detected for the first time behind shock waves.
HCO radicals have been generated by 308 nm photolysis of mixtures of formaldehyde in …

There is considerable interest in laboratories around the world in developing processes for
the direct conversion of methane to higher valued products. Direct routes to useful chemicals …

The formyl radical is an important intermediate formed during the high-temperature oxidation
of hydrocarbons. 1, 2 Because the hydrogen atom in HCO is so weakly bound (bond energy …
