rate-controlled constrained-equilibrium modeling of nC₄H₁₀/O₂/diluent mixtures

The objective of this thesis is to develop and apply the Rate-Controlled Constrained-Equilibrium (RCCE) method to study the combustion of nC4H10/O2/Diluent mixtures. The RCCE is a dimension reduction technique for chemical kinetics based on local maximization of entropy or minimization of a relevant...
