A correct description of these processes is of both scientific and practical interest. The influence of the kinetics of chemical reactions and diffusion of fuel molecules on the thermal and chemical structure of the flame forming around a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) sphere in air under natural convection has been studied by numerical simulation. The three-dimensional gas flow around the solid body has been calculated using the full Navier–Stokes equations for a multicomponent mixture taking into account diffusion and heat transfer between the surface and gas, convection, and radiative heat transfer. The kinetic model represents the conjugate reactions both on the condensed material surface and in the gas phase. The formation of the gaseous fuel methyl methacrylate (MMA) on the surface is described by an effective one-step pyrolysis reaction of PMMA. The oxidation of MMA in the gas phase is described by the global reaction C<sub>5</sub>H<sub>8</sub>O<sub>2</sub> + 6O<sub>2</sub> <span>(to)</span> 5CO<sub>2</sub> + 4H<sub>2</sub>O. It has been found that the temperature and species concentration profiles in the flame practically do not depend on the rate constant of this reaction provided that the characteristic reaction time is much less than the characteristic time of MMA diffusion. It has been shown that varying the MMA diffusion coefficient has a significant effect on the thermal and chemical structure of the flame. Increasing the MMA diffusion coefficient increases the maximum flame temperature. The results of the study show that the transport properties of compounds required to calculate their transport coefficients are among the most important parameters for accurate CFD simulation.</p>","PeriodicalId":10509,"journal":{"name":"Combustion, Explosion, and Shock Waves","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139556318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Experimental values of the specific electrical resistance of aluminum are compared with predictions of the equilibrium electrical resistance model. The proposed model ensures an adequate description of currently available reference data on equilibrium isothermal compression and isobaric heating of aluminum. At the same time, the shock wave experiment yields a higher specific electrical resistance than that predicted by the model of the electrical resistance of an equilibrium defectless crystal. The detected difference in the specific electrical resistances testifies to generation of defects of the crystal structure of the metal subjected to dynamic compression. Under the assumption of predominant formation of vacancies, the concentration of defects in aluminum is estimated as a function of the shock wave pressure. The number of defects in the metal increases with an increase in the shock wave pressure. The data obtained are qualitatively consistent with available results for copper and silver, which allows one to claim that generation of defects under shock compression has common specific features for these metals.
