About
- This mechanism has been derived by Jonathan Wirtz at CERFACS.
- It is derived from the detailed Jerzembeck high temperature scheme. The associated skeletal mechanism can be found here.
- This mechanism can be used for various mix of C7H16/N2 combustion in pure oxygen at atmospheric conditions for auto-ignition time and counterflow diffusion flames.
- Validity has been evaluated for 1D counterflow diffusion flames on the following range : P = 1 bar, T = 400 K, phi = 0.1 – 11, SR=1e0-1e5.
- Validity has been evaluated for 0D auto-ignition reactors on the following range : P = 1 bar, T = 1000K, phi =1.
- The ARC mechanism comprises 29 transported species, 6 QSS species and 94 reactions.
