Dynamically evaluating mixture effects on multi-channel reactions in flames: A case study for the CH3 + OH reaction

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of various mixtures rules for representing multi-component pressure dependence of the multi-channel CH3 + OH reaction in flames is compared using a novel dynamic procedure for evaluating mixture effects as a function of reaction progress (viz. local temperature, pressure and mixture composition).
