Abstract:Experimental and kinetic studies of the chemical role of CO 2 in hydrocarbon reactions were conducted in a fuel-rich CH 4 flat flame with air ratios varying from 0.60 to 0.74. Unburned hydrocarbons (CH 4 , C 2 H 2 , C 2 H 4 , and C 2 H 6 ) in O 2 /CO 2 combustion were found to be lower than those in air combustion. The differences in the CH 4 oxidation characteristics between the air and O 2 /CO 2 combustion were caused by the chemical role of CO 2 in the reaction R1 (CO 2 + H → CO + OH), R2 (CH 2 (S) + CO 2 →… Show more
