What is Vitiated Ethane Oxidation in a High-pressure Flow Reactor about?

Vitiated combustion processes offer the potential to improve the thermodynamic efficiency in hydrocarbon-fueled combustion systems, providing a subsequent decrease in energy-specific CO 2 emissions along with a decrease in the emission levels of nitrogen oxides (NO x ) and particulate matter. The present work comprises an experimental and modeling study of vitiated ethane oxidation in a high-pressure flow reactor, with pressures of 1-6 bar, O 2 mole fractions of 3.5-7.0%, temperatures of 1075-1100 K and 15-18 mole.% H 2 O. Time-history measurements of species are used to characterize the overall rate of reaction and track the fuel-carbon through intermediate and product species. A one-dimensional mixing-reacting model that accounts for partial oxidation during reactant mixing is used in conjunction with a detailed kinetic mechanism. Changes in competing pathways due to variations in pressure and O 2 mole fraction give rise to the complex pressure dependence seen in the experiments.
