Effect of H2O and CO2 on propane, propene, and isopropanol oxidation at elevated pressures
The article discusses research results on oxidation features of high-density fuel-enriched C3H8/O-2, C3H6/O-2, and C3H7OH/O-2 mixtures (rho(fuel) = 0.22-0.25 mol/dm(3), rho(O2) = 0.76-0.88 mol/dm(3)) diluted with argon, carbon dioxide, or water vapor (from 59 to 72%mol.) at the uniform heating (1 Kimin) of tubular reactor to 640K. Proceeding from the time dependences of the reaction mixtures temperature, it was revealed that the self-ignition temperature of fuels in the Ar medium increases in the following sequence: C3H6
