Abstract

Single-stage conversion of alkane mixtures simulating associated petroleum gas (APG) to syngas is studied in a static installation and in a flow reactor based on the rocket combustion chamber. Yields of the desired reaction products close to their thermodynamically equilibrium values are obtained. A range of experimental parameters, in which ignition delays of APG-oxygen mixtures exhibit negative or zero temperature coefficients, is determined for the first time. Such a behavior of ignition delays is proved to be a fundamental property of fuel-rich APG mixtures. The range of abnormal temperature dependence of ignition delays is shown to be extended as the initial pressure rises, which makes it possible to significantly increase the reaction rate by increasing the initial working pressure.
