Measurement and modelling of the laminar burning velocity of methane-ammonia-air flames at high pressures using a reduced reaction mechanism
Ekenechukwu C. Okafor,Yuji Naito,Sophie Colson,Akinori Ichikawa,Taku Kudo,Akihiro Hayakawa,Hideaki Kobayashi +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an optimized reduced reaction mechanism for CH4 NH3-air flames at high pressures was proposed and the experimental measurements were also used to validate selected detailed reaction mechanisms.

Progress in knowledge of flamelet structure and extinction
TL;DR: There has been a considerable amount of progress in studying flamelets, their structures and their responses to various perturbations as mentioned in this paper, however, the focus is narrower, namely on quasisteady flamelets and therefore the considerations of flamelet extinction that are presented in this paper are not the dynamics of extinction.

Experimental and kinetic modeling investigation on the laminar flame propagation of ammonia under oxygen enrichment and elevated pressure conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of oxygen enrichment, equivalence ratio, and initial pressure on laminar burning velocities of ammonia were analyzed in detail, and it was revealed that the enhanced flame propagation with oxygen enrichment is mainly due to the increase of adiabatic flame temperature which in turn leads to higher concentrations of key radicals like H, OH and NH2.

Direct combustion of recyclable metal fuels for zero-carbon heat and power
Jeffrey M. Bergthorson,Samuel Goroshin,Michael Soo,Philippe Julien,Jan Palecka,David L. Frost,D.J. Jarvis +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a metal-fuelled zero-carbon heat engine is proposed for power generation in which metal fuels are burned with air in a combustor to provide clean, high-grade heat.

NOx formation in two-stage methane–air flames
S. C. Li,Forman A. Williams +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage counterflow methane-air flames at normal atmospheric pressure and a feed-stream temperature of about 300 K were measured and computations were made of structures of two stage counter-flow methane air flames, including formation of species containing two carbon atoms.
