Many studies of the flame speed of hydrocarbon and oxygenated fuels show that flame
speed is very sensitive to formyl radical (HCO) reactions with small species, such as HCO+ …

The formation and destruction pathways of the formyl radical (HCO) occupy a pivotal role in
the conversion of fuel molecules (and their intermediates) to eventual products CO and CO …

Few studies of formaldehyde flames are available, especially at pressures greater than 55
torr, due to the difficulties and hazards associated with producing formaldehyde vapor. This …

Weakly bound free radicals have low-dissociation thresholds such that at high temperatures,
time scales for dissociation and collisional relaxation become comparable, leading to …

Laminar flame speeds and Markstein lengths of H 2/CO with CO 2 dilution were measured at
normal and elevated pressures (0.1 MPa, 0.5 MPa, 1.0 MPa) and temperatures (298 K, 375 …

The effect of ozone additive on the enhancement of the burning velocity for premixed
methane–air flames is investigated by both experimental measurements and kinetic …

In this work, laminar flame speeds of CH 4/CO/air mixtures were measured at the unburnt
temperature of 353 K and pressures from 1 to 10 atm in a high-pressure constant-volume …

Oxy-fuel combustion is one method to produce concentrated streams of carbon dioxide for
subsequent sequestration. An additional benefit of oxy-firing is a reduction in NO x …

An experimental study is conducted to investigate the effect of CO addition on the laminar
flame characteristics of H 2 and CH 4 flames in a constant-volume combustion system. In …

The laminar flame speeds of H 2/CO/air mixtures with N 2 and CO 2 dilution were
experimentally and numerically studied over a wide range equivalence ratios (0.8–4.0) with …
