Abstract

Four alternative ways to describe methane oxidation that can all be used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) have been investigated. The purpose has been to investigate how advanced a description of the methane oxidation is needed for an accurate description of the main components in practical CFD calculations. More importantly, the prediction of the intermediate combustion products CO and H2 has been stressed.
