Further Validation of an Augmented Reduced Mechanism for Methane Oxidation: Comparison of Global Parameters and Detailed Structure

摘要

An augmented reduced mechanism (ARM) for methane oxidation,consisting of 16 species and 12 lumped reaction steps, was developedfrom GRI-Mech 1.2. It showed excellent performance in repro- ducingthe global response of a wide varieties of combustion phenomenaincluding auto-ignition, laminar flame propagation, and counterflwingnon-premixed systems under extensive thermody- namical parametricvariations including those of temperature, pressure, and composition.
