Assignment 3

• This is a group assignment
• Select a project based on chemical reactors, or reactor networks.
• Discuss the project with the instructor and group members.
  • Ideas include learning and extending existing cantera reactors.
  • Modeling a flame or combustor using a reactor network.
  • Investigating a kinetic process, such as ignition delay versus temperature, pressure, fuel, stoichiometry.
  • Compute a PSR S-Curve. Apply an unsteady periodic mixing rate and examine the effect on flame extinction and ignition.
  • Use the DRG code to reduce a detailed ammonia mechanism.
• Present the results of the project
