Multiplicity and stability of burner stabilized premixed laminar flames: A general proof

Propagation of premixed laminar flames in 3D narrow open ducts using RBF-generated finite differences

“…Depending on the initial conditions, the model can reach different steady state solutions for the same set of parameters [5,33,34]. For instance, Figures 11 and 12 show the steady state flame structures computed for Le = 0.5 and R = 8 with isothermal boundary conditions using different initial conditions.…”

Bifurcation Behavior of Premixed Hydrogen/Air Mixtures in a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor

“…These turning points separate the first branch (lower pressures) from the second branch (higher pressures). The two ignition branches are reminiscent of the first and second explosion limits (Dougherty and Rabitz, 1980;Galand, 1981;Gray et al, 1984;Chin nick et al, 1986;Griffiths and Scott, 1987;Baulch .et aI., 1988;Gray and Scott, 1990;Johnson et al; (Gray and Scott, 1990). …”

“…It has been observed experimentally that radicals can be lost because they react with vessel walls (Dougherty and Rabitz, 1980;Galand, 1981;Tomlin et al, 1992). To study the role of radical quenching, we did calculations using an augmented reaction scheme which contains one wall reaction at the time.…”

“…Additional parameters can include Newtonian cooling for a non-isothermal, non-adiabatic CSTR and the material of the walls on which heterogeneous reactions may occur. The oxidation of hydrogen has been studied thoroughly in closed as well as in open systems (Galand, 1981;Gray et al, 1984;Chin nick et al, 1986;Chin nick et al, 1986;Griffiths and Scott, 1987;Baulch et al, 1988; Gray and Scott, 1990;Johnson et aI., 1991). Earlier work is summarized in excellent reviews (Dixon- Lewis and Williams, 1977; Lewis and von Elbe, 1987).…”
