    The document is a notice for a final project in a combustion engineering course. It provides instructions for students to study the formation of nitrogen oxides (NO) during the combustion of propane using two reactor models: 1) a constant-volume, fixed-mass reactor and 2) a well-stirred reactor. Students are asked to use specific reaction mechanisms and assumptions to model NO production and compare the results to equilibrium calculations under various conditions, then present their work as an article with equations, assumptions, graphical results and a physical discussion.

    Final Project
    Deadline: 13/09/2013

    Study the NO formation for the stoichiometric combustion of propane in standard dry air in 1)
    a Constant-Volume, Fixed-Mass Reactor (CVFMR). and 2) a Well-Stirred Reactor (WSR). Use the
    global mechanism for propane presented in chapter 5 (Table 5.1) and the Zel`dovich mechanism for
    NO (page 168, only Eqs. N.1 and N.2). Employ the steady state assumption for the N concentration
    and assume partial equilibrium for the reaction O2=O+O (and find the O concentration).
    For the WSR consider the effect of the residence time on the NO production (from
    equilibrium to blow-off limit). Compare your results with the equilibrium NO concentration calculated
    by an equilibrium software. The reactor is assumes adiabatic. For the CVFMR study the time evolution
    of NO concentration in an adiabatic reactor and compare the results with equilibrium calculations. Use
    the conditions described below.
    Present your work as an article (in English). Present all necessary equations and assumptions.
    Present the results in graphical form. Comment your results physically.
