Feasibility of Reduced Chemical Kinetic Mechanisms ofMethane in Internal Combustion Engine Simulations

摘要

Three reduced chemical kinetic mechanisms of methane combustion were tested and compared with thestandard detailed scheme GriMech 3.0., using the internal combustion engine (ICE) model of Chemkin 4.02 [1]. Thisstudy shows acceptable concordances in the prediction of temperature and main species profiles. But reduced schemeswere incapables to predict all polluant emissions in an internal combustion engine.
