Chemical effect of NO on CH4 oxidation during combustion in O2/NO environments

The effect of NO on methane oxidation in O2/NO combustion atmosphere was investigated using reactive molecular dynamics (RMD) calculations. It has been observed that, the conversion of NO could accelerate the oxidation of CH4. To provide a detailed description for this phenomenon, the corresponding kinetic behavior of nitrogen-containing compounds were systematically analyzed at atomistic level. It revealed that NO presented a two-fold impact...
