Abstract

As an approach to testing kinetic models which couple NO formation to combustion reactions, a jet-stirred combustor was used to study NO(x) formation under kinetically controlled combustion conditions. The experimental data were compared with kinetic calculations for a well-stirred reactor. The agreement between theory and experiment was quite good for the combustion of hydrogen/air and carbon monoxide/air, for which detailed mechanisms were used. A quasi-global mechanism for the combustion of propane/air resulted in substantial underprediction of NO(x) formation.
