About
- This mechanism has been derived by Quentin Cazères at CERFACS for kerosene combustion.
- It is derived from 52 species skeletal mechanism itself derived from the POLIMI_C1_C16_HT mechanism using ARCANE.
- This mechanism can be used for the Jet-A1 combustion in air at atmospheric conditions and for high temperatures. Auto-ignition mechanisms are also included.
- Validity has been evaluated for 1D premixed flames on the following range: P = 1 bar, T = 300 K – 800 K, phi = 0.5 – 1.6.
- Validity has been evaluated for 0D auto-ignition reactors on the following range: P = 1 bar, T = 1000K – 2000K, phi = 1.0.
- It comprises 36 transported species, 16 QSS species and 543 reactions.
