- Abstract
- Experimental mole fraction profiles of chemical species (stable, radical and intermediates) have been measured in three CH <inf>3</inf>COOH/O <inf>2</inf>/Ar flat premixed flames burning at low pressure (50mbar) and with equivalence ratios equal to 0.77, 0.9 and 1.05, respectively. The experimental setup used to determine the structure of one-dimensional laminar premixed flames consists of a molecular beam mass spectrometer system (MBMS) combined with electron impact ionisation (EI). Experimental results have highlighted an important role played by ketene (CH <inf>2</inf>CO) as an intermediate during the combustion of acetic acid. In order to simulate the experimental results, a sub-mechanism concerning the combustion of CH <inf>3</inf>COOH and CH <inf>2</inf>CO has been built and added to a global mechanism recently proposed. This ensures a reasonably good modelling for the structures of acetic acid flames. © 2011 The Combustion Institute.
