Experimental and modeling study of the oxidation of natural gas in a premixed flame, shock tube, and jet-stirred reactor

Ethane oxidation and pyrolysis from 5 bar to 1000 bar: Experiments and simulation

“…The comprehensive nature of the Miller2001 model modified in the current work was further tested by simulating experimental data reported by Hidaka et al [20] and Bakali et al [21]. Figures 25-27 show the results of simulation of Hidaka et al's ethane pyrolysis and oxidation data.…”

“…Besides simulating experimental data obtained by Hidaka et al, species profiles for natural gas oxidation obtained by Bakali et al [21] in a jet-stirred reactor were also simulated using the Miller2001 and the modified Miller models. Simulations for the Bakali et al's jet-stirred reactor data were conducted using …”

Very High Pressure Single Pulse Shock Tube Studies of Aromatic Species

“…Similar good predictions are also observed for other primary intermediates C 2 H 4 , C 2 H 2 , CO and products CO 2 , observed in this study. The modified Miller model also is able to simulate 1 atm JSR species profiles from the work of Bakali et al 34 . The model also makes good predictions of ignition delay measurements reported by Bakali et al 34 and Hidaka et al 35 .…”

On the predictability of chemical kinetics for the description of the combustion of simple fuels

“…The first version of the GDF-Kin mechanism consists of 508 reversible elementary reactions involving 82 chemical species. El-Bakali et al (2006) proposed an upgrade of this mechanism, GDF-Kin 3.0, which consists of the revision of the GDF-Kin 2.0 (El-Bakali et al, 2004) with the addition of the kinetics of nitrogen oxidation from Dagaut et al (1998) Le Cong and Dagaut (2007) developed a kinetic mechanism initially consisting of 737 reversible reactions and 98 chemical species, which allows simulating the natural gas and syngas combustion over an extensive range of operation conditions. This mechanism was built upon the mechanism developed by Dagaut (2002) for the combustion of the natural gas, and the systems used in the validation of this mechanism include shock tubes, premixed laminar flames, PSRs and PFRs.…”
