A kinetic model for the prediction of no emissions from staged combustion of pulverized coal
TL;DR: In this article, an advanced NOx model for staged combustion of pulverized coal is presented, which takes into account the different pathways of coal nitrogen release during primary and secondary pyrolysis, char, and soot combustion, and is used to predict NO profiles that are compared to measurements obtained from combustion tests carried out at a bench-scale entrained-flow reactor.

Factors in the conversion of fuel nitrogen to nitric and nitrous oxides during fluidized bed combustion
TL;DR: In this paper, a rank series of coals, with varying contents of nitrogen and volatile matter, were burned under a variety of conditions of temperature and oxygen:fuel ratios in a small fluidized bed combustor.

Modelling of nonpremixed hydrogen jet flames using a conditional moment closure method
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model that employs conditionally averaged quantities in predicting finite rate chemical kinetic effects in turbulent flames has been developed Modelling of turbulent combustion with a Conditional Moment Closure (CMC) method is a new, computationally inexpensive approach that shows significant promise.

Uncertainty-quantification analysis of the effects of residual impurities on hydrogen–oxygen ignition in shock tubes
Javier Urzay,Nicolas Kseib,David F. Davidson,Gianluca Iaccarino,Gianluca Iaccarino,Ronald K. Hanson +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of residual radical impurities on the computation and experimental determination of ignition times in H2/O2 mixtures is discussed, and two methods are proposed for quantifying experimentally H-residual impurities in shock tubes, namely, an a priori method that consists of detecting OH traces upon shocking unfueled mixtures and a posteriori method in which the amount of impurities is inferred by comparing fueled experimental autoignition data with calculations.

Application of soot formation model : effects of chlorine
J. T. Mckinnon,Jack B. Howard +1 more
TL;DR: Chlorine addition to the fuel can alter the concentrations of radicals in a manner that enhances soot formation in the combustion of hydrocarbon fuels as mentioned in this paper, which is the net effect of competition between molecular weight growth and destruction mechanisms involving free radicals.
