Combustion Chemistry

Abstract

The thermodynamic and thermochemical properties of molecules, radicals, and atoms are involved one way or another in almost every computational aspect of combustion science. In most chemical kinetics and equilibrium calculations, such as kinetics of reactions behind shock waves or in nozzle flow, adiabatic flame calculations, and detonation processes, to mention a few, these thermodynamic and thermochemical properties must be found at a number of temperatures, usually determined by an automatic iteration process.
