Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) for hydrogen combustion at atmospheric pressure, including NOx chemistry

The chemical kinetics results from a complex reduction process from the detailed CRECK mechanism [1] with an appropriate NOx sub-mechanism from Ref. [2]. The final ARC mechanism comprises: 12 transported species (N2, H2, H, O2, O, H2O, OH, HO2, NO, NO2, N, NH), 4 species in Quasi-Steady State (QSS): (N2O, HONO, NNH, NH2), and 38 reactions. More details are given in supplementary material of Ref. [3].

Analytically Reduced Chemistry (ARC) for methane/hydrogen combustion in a mixture of fresh and burnt gases at atmospheric pressure

The chemical kinetics results from a complex reduction process from the detailed CRECK mechanism [1]. The final ARC mechanism comprises: 16 transported species (N2, H2, H, O2, O, H2O, OH, HO2, CO, CO2, CH4, CH3, CH2O, C2H6, C2H4, C2H2), 7 species in Quasi-Steady State (QSS): (H2O2, CH3O, HCO, C2H5, C2H3, HCCO, CH2), and 154 reactions. More details are given in supplementary material of Ref. [2].
