Fire plume along a vertical wall is analyzed using a laminar boundary layer model, including finite-rate, gas-phase chemical kinetics. The chemical reactions include two semiglobal steps: In the first, fuel is oxidized to form carbon monoxide and water vapor, and in the second, carbon monoxide is oxidized to form carbon dioxide. Several important nondimensional kinetic parameters are identified and a parametric study is given. The computed results indicate that by slowing down the relative kinetic rates in the gas-phase reactions, the total surface heat transfer rate and the preheating distance are decreased. Furthermore, slowing down the kinetics also increases the amount of unreacted combustibles that escape from the flame.


In this work methylene was prepared by the photolysis of ketene, and the experiments include observations of the effects of changing the wavelength of the photolysing light and of introducing foreign gases. Results are consistent with a free-radical mechanism in which CH 2 abstracts a chlorine or a hydrogen atom from C 2 H 5 Cl: CH 2 +CH 3 CH 2 Cl→ k cl ĊH 2 Cl+CH 3 ĊH 2 , CH 2 +CH 3 CH 2 Cl→ k h1 ĊH 3 +ĊH 3 CH 3 Cl, } CH 2 +CH 3 CH 2 Cl→ k H2 ĊH 3 +CH 3 ċHCl. } ( k H ) All the fourteen products of the radical recombinations have been identified. Disproportionation of radicals and decomposition of excited molecules formed by recombinations yield additional products. Methylene insertion does not appear to play a significant role. When the incident light contains wavelengths in the region 2450 to 4000Å we find that k Cl / k H =1·62, k H1 / k H2 =0·098. If shorter wavelengths are excluded, or if nitrogen is added, lower values of k Cl / k H are obtained. On the other hand, in the presence of carbon monoxide the value of k Cl / k H may be greatly increased. It is suggested that these findings are attributable to differences in reactivity between singlet and triplet methylene. At longer wavelengths, or when nitrogen is present, the relative concentration of the singlet is reduced, but in the presence of carbon monoxide the triplet is removed preferentially (De Graff & Kistiakowsky 1967). Singlet methylene appears to be highly discriminating in its reactions, abstracting chlorine preferentially, while the triplet discriminates in favour of hydrogen abstraction. A kinetic analysis based on these ideas and consistent with the experimental observations shows that k S Cl / k S H >16·3, k T Cl / k T H <0·14. The selectivities shown by the two species of methylene are thought to be a result of differences in electronic structure rather than energy content.

A detailed mathematical model is developed for simulation of heat and mass transfer processes during the pyrolysis and combustion of a single biomass particle. The kinetic scheme of Shafizadeh and Chin is employed to describe the pyrolysis process. The light gases formed during the biomass pyrolysis is assumed to consist of methane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and water vapor with given mass fractions relevant to those found in the experiments of high heating conditions. The combustion model takes into account the reactions of oxygen with methane, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, tar and char as well as gasification of char with water vapor and carbon dioxide. Appropriate correlations taken from past studies are used for computation of the rate of these reactions. The model allows calculation of time and space evolution of various parameters including biomass and char densities, gaseous species and temperature. Different experimental data reported in the literature are employed to validate the pyrolysis and combustion models. The reasonable agreement obtained between the predictions and measured data reveals that the presented model is capable of successfully capturing various experiments of wood particle undergoing a pyrolysis or combustion process. In particular, the role of gas phase reactions within and adjacent to particle on the combustion process is examined. The results indicate that for the case of small particles in the order of millimeter size and less, one may neglect any effects of gas phase reactions. However, for larger particles, a combustion model may need to include hydrogen oxidation and even carbon monoxide combustion reactions.


As in earlier studies in this series, the reaction mechanism has been investigated by identi­fication and estimation of the products formed by the interaction of methylene, prepared by the photolysis of ketene, and the chloroalkane. The reaction was examined over a range of initial pressures, with different wavelengths of photolysing light, and in the presence of oxygen and carbon monoxide. Both insertion and abstraction processes are important, but insertion into C—Cl bonds is negligible under our conditions. Singlet methylene, which is responsible for insertion, is again found to be highly selective in its abstraction reactions, the ratio of the relative rates of abstraction of chlorine and hydrogen exceeding 12. The results are consistent with the mechanism suggested earlier (part II), according to which singlet methylene behaves as an electrophilic reagent, and forms a bond with a chlorine atom involving the vacant p-orbital of CH 2 and a filled p-orbital of Cl. Stereo­chemical considerations suggest that the transition state of this reaction is such that no bond­ing between the C atom of CH 2 and that of C—Cl, and hence no insertion into C—Cl, can occur. We believe that insertion into a C—H bond involves interaction of singlet CH 2 with the electrons of the bond, with a triangular transition state. The effect of a chlorine atom in generally reducing the probability of insertion into neighbouring C—H bonds is thought to be the result of the rapid competing reaction between singlet methylene and the halogen atom. A five-centre transition state in which singlet CH 2 is bonded to Cl through its vacant p-orbital and to a hydrogen atom on C 2 through its filled sp 2 -orbital may be partly respon­sible for chloromethane formation. Triplet methylene has been shown to resemble alkyl radicals in its abstraction reactions.

: For the first time in the present study, the non-bonded interaction of the Coniine (C8H17N) with carbon monoxide (CO) was investigated by density functional theory (DFT/M062X/6-311+G*) in the gas phase and solvent water. The adsorption of the CO over C8H17N was affected on the electronic properties such as EHOMO, ELUMO, the energy gap between LUMO and HOMO, global hardness. Furthermore, chemical shift tensors and natural charge of the C8H17N and complex C8H17N/CO were determined and discussed. According to the natural bond orbital (NBO) results, the molecule C8H17N and CO play as both electron donor and acceptor at the complex C8H17N/CO in the gas phase and solvent water. On the other hand, the charge transfer is occurred between the bonding, antibonding or nonbonding orbitals in two molecules C8H17N and CO. We have also investigated the charge distribution for the complex C8H17N/CO by molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) calculations using the M062X/6-311+G* level of theory. The electronic spectra of the C8H17N and complex C8H17N/CO were calculated by time dependent DFT (TD-DFT) for investigation of the maximum wavelength value of the C8H17N before and after the non-bonded interaction with the CO in the gas phase and solvent water. Therefore, C8H17N can be used as strong absorbers for air purification and reduce environmental pollution.
