Ethylene/air combustion mechanism OpenFOAM

Nandu K · January 12, 2022, 03:16

Hello Friends,

Is there any ethylene/air detailed or reduced combustion mechanism in OpenFOAM?

I had done the tutorial case of methane/air counterflow flames using GRI 3.0.
I am trying to do ethylene air counterflow simulations.

If some of you have tried it, please help.

Thanks
Nandu

I am too looking for ethylene/air combustion reaction mechanisms.

I've found one at this link: https://www.cerfacs.fr/cantera/docs/..._C2H4_BFER.cti.

But it appears too unstable. Have you found anything useful to you?

I am looking for a Quasi-global chemistry mechanism [1] for Ethylene/air combustion.

How can I get the 'cti' or 'yaml' file?
