Abstract

Acetaldehyde oxidation in a jet-stirred reactor has been investigated at high temperature (similar to 900-1300 K) in the pressure range 1-10 atm. Molecular species concentration profiles of O-2, H-2, CO, CO2, CH2O, CH4, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6 and CH3HCO were obtained by probe sampling and GC analysis. Acetaldehyde ignition in shock waves has been investigated in a wide range of conditions (0.5 less than or equal to phi less than or equal to 2, 1230-2530 K, 2-5 atm), and ignition delay times have been measured. Acetaldehyde oxidation in these conditions was modeled using a comprehensive kinetic reaction mechanism. The proposed mechanism is able to reproduce experimental data obtained in our high-pressure jet stirred reactor and ignition delays measured in shock tube. The same mechanism has also been validated for the oxidation of CH4, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6, C3H8, 1-butene, n-butane, mixtures of CH4 with C2H6 and or C3H8 in the same conditions.
