Abstract

The effect of CF3H, CF4, and N2 on the ignition of methane–air mixtures has been investigated. The effect of trifluoromethane is due to its being involved in reaction chain termination. A nonadditive effect of trifluoromethane and nitrogen on the concentration limits of ignition and flame propagation in methane–air mixtures has been predicted and revealed. The synergistic effect arises from the exponential dependence of the rate of the chain process on the concentrations of the initial components.
