Numerical study of carbonaceous nanoparticle formation behind shock waves

Abstract

By incorporating complex chemical kinetics for both gaseous and particulate phases with a fixed sectional aerosol dynamics model, a detailed description of the properties of carbonaceous nanoparticles formed in the pyrolysis of carbon suboxide behind a reflected shock wave can be obtained. The model successfully predicted the induction time, growth rate and particle yield for the shock tube experiment. The calculated time-dependent particle …
