About

This mechanism has been derived by Quentin Malé at CERFACS.

Derived from San Diego mechanism for atmospheric conditions (101325 Pa 298K) and large range of equivalence ratio (0.5 to 2.0) with laminar flame speeds and auto ignition times as target. C3H8/AIR mixtures. Skeletal mechanism can be found here.

It comprises 21 transported species, 14 QSS species and 322 reactions.
