An experimental study of the structure of a stoichiometric ethanol/oxygen/argon flame

Primary tabs

Leplat, Nicolas [UCL] Seydi, A. Vandooren, Jacques [UCL]

Experimental mole fractions profiles of stable species and radicals are reported for a stoichiometric ethanol laminar premixed flame C2H5OH/O-2/Ar burning at 50 mbar. Different mechanisms are tested by comparison of model predictions with experimental results. The results show that some ethanol mechanisms predict reasonably well reactants and products profiles but significant differences for many intermediate species remain.
