Abstract

Uncertainty analysis was used to investigate the precision property of detailed chemical kinetic models. A general-purpose algorithm for assessing and evaluating the impact of uncertainties in chemical kinetic models is presented. The method was also validated through analysis of different kinetic mechanisms applied in the process of modeling NO x emission in methane flame. The algorithm, which provided a basis for further studies, was more efficient and general compared with other methods.
