Numerical study of gas-phase interactions of phosphorus-containing compounds with co-flow diffusion flames

Computational studies have been performed for methane-air cup-burner (i.e., co-flow diffusion) flames with addition of phosphorous containing compounds (PCCs). The PCCs are: phosphoric acid, trimethyl phosphate (TMP), and dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP), and these are added to the oxidizer or fuel flow. Calculations (time-dependent) employing a 2D axisymmetric domain, detailed gas-phase chemistry and mixture-averaged diffusion, are employed to...
