Modeling and Simulation of Reactive Flows

About this book

Modelling and Simulation of Reactive Flows presents information on modeling and how to numerically solve reactive flows. The book offers a distinctive approach that combines diffusion flames and geochemical flow problems, providing users with a comprehensive resource that bridges the gap for scientists, engineers, and the industry.Specifically, the book looks at the basic concepts related to reaction rates, chemical kinetics, and the development of reduced kinetic mechanisms. It considers the most common methods used in practical situations, along with equations for reactive flows, and various techniques—including flamelet, ILDM, and Redim—for jet flames and plumes, with solutions for both.In addition, the book includes techniques to accelerate the convergence of numerical simulation, and a discussion on the analysis of uncertainties with numerical results, making this a useful reference for anyone who is interested in both combustion in free flow and in porous media.- Helps readers learn how to apply applications of numerical methods to simulate geochemical kinetics- Presents methods on how to transform the transport equations in several coordinate systems- Includes discussions of the basic concepts related to reaction rates, chemical kinetics, and the development of reduced kinetic mechanisms, including the most common methods used in practical situations- Offers a distinctive approach that combines diffusion flames and geochemical flow problems

Chemical Equilibrium

Abstract

This chapter deals with the chemical equilibrium conditions in an aqueous system, directed to problems in geochemistry, and in the gas phase, directed to problems in combustion. The chemical equilibrium condition is often used when the chemical kinetics is fast. The chemical equilibrium is the state in which the forward and backward reactions have equal rates. The thermodynamic equilibrium occurs when a system reaches the chemical, thermal, and mechanical equilibrium.

Equilibrium models can be used when the reaction is fast or has sufficient time to reach equilibrium [1]. Chemical equilibrium is the state in which the forward and backward reaction rates are equal. In this state, there is no change in the reactants and products concentrations. The thermodynamic equilibrium occurs when a system reaches the chemical, thermal, and mechanical equilibriums. ...
