Computational results are presented supporting the suggestion that the primary process in fuel-rich acetylene combustion is reaction with OH to yield ketene, and that acetylene does not decay, primarily, through the methane family. The methodology for modeling higher hydrocarbon decay is discussed.

A theoretical and experimental investigation of the influence of alcohols on the critical conditions of extinction of diffusion flames burning hydrocarbon fuels is outlined here. Experiments were performed on diffusion flames stabilized between the vaporizing surface of a liquid fuel and an oxidizin
Chemical kinetic factors of hydrocarbon oxidation are examined in a variety of ignition problems. Ignition is related to the presence of a dominant chain-branching reaction mechanism that can drive a chemical system to completion in a very short period of time. Ignition in laboratory environments is
