However, their flammable characteristics pose significant safety risks. Therefore, supporting the global goal of sustainable development necessitates the development of high-performance, environmentally friendly flame retardants. Biomass phytic acid (PA) has emerged as a promising option because of its high phosphorus content and excellent biocompatibility. However, its combustion behaviors and chemical kinetic mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, quantum chemical calculation methods were used to construct a detailed PA chemical reaction kinetic model. A series of experiments were conducted to validate the model and evaluate PA's flame suppression effect. Utilizing a counterflow flame burner and particle image velocimetry (PIV), the inhibitory effect of various PA concentrations was examined based on the laminar flame speed of CH<sub>4</sub>/PA/Air mixture. The results revealed that a merely 0.2 % addition of PA could reduce the laminar flame speed by 38.9 %, demonstrating its significant flame suppression effect. Building on the foundational GRI-Mech 3.0 and integrating PA's pyrolysis and reaction mechanism, this study developed for the first time a detailed chemical model of CH<sub>4</sub>/PA/Air combustion. This model integrated PA's thermal decomposition module and thermodynamic data via ab-initio quantum chemical calculations, thereby accurately predicting global kinetic indicators such as laminar flame speed. Results suggested that the key reactions, such as PO<sub>2</sub>+H + M→HOPO + M, HOPO<sub>2</sub>+H→PO<sub>2</sub>+H<sub>2</sub>O, and HOPO + OH→PO<sub>2</sub>+H<sub>2</sub>O primarily influenced the laminar flame speed. Moreover, the CFD simulation elucidated the complex interaction between PA and flame structures. A detailed analysis of the spatial distribution of key parameters such as temperature, combustion radicals, and effective inhibition radicals unveiled the PA's flame suppression mechanism in support of the practical application of this eco-friendly flame retardant.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":341,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Thermal Sciences","volume":"208 ","pages":"Article 109505"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142561211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present work is a determining step in deciphering, quantifying, and understanding the aforementioned steps involved in the optical charging of PCMs. Herein, the effect of particle size, concentration and thermochromism have been critically investigated. In particular, detailed optical characterization and photo-thermal experimentation pertinent to non-thermochromic nanoparticles laden PCM (referred to as NP-PCM) and thermochromic micro capsules laden PCM (referred to as TMCP-PCM) has been undertaken. Detailed optical analysis points out that opposed to NP-PCM, TMCP-PCM significantly scatter the incident radiations – the diffuse transmittance (at room temperature) in the two cases being approximately 2 % and 39 % respectively. Furthermore, whereas, optical properties of non-thermochromic nanoparticles are nearly invariant to temperature changes; in the case of thermochromic microcapsules, the magnitude of scattering further increases and diffuse transmittance reaches as high as 51 % at elevated temperatures. Although, thermochromism helps in enhancing the penetration depth at elevated temperatures, but, due to significant fraction of scattering, the photo-thermal energy conversion is not that effective. In terms of temperature field, spatial-temporal temperature distribution curves reveal that temperature spread (in the liquid phase) in case of optical charging of non-thermochromic particles (carbon soot nanoparticles) laden PCMs is significantly high (as high as approximately 24 °C) relative to that observed in case of thermochromic particles (microcapsules) laden PCMs (approximately, 4 °C).
