Vector Computers and Complex Chemistry Combustion

Combustion chemistry usually involves many interacting species and many elementary reactions. Typically, tens of species and hundreds of reversible chemical reactions are used in hydrocarbon combustion kinetics. As a result, the governing conservation equations for total mass, species mass, momentum and energy, in a reactive flow, are large and stiff systems of partial differential equations. A consequence is that only zero and one dimensional models have formerly been used to look in detail at the coupling of a large number of species interactions [8] [13] [17] [19] [20] [22].
