Abstract
The detailed influence of ferrocene in a low-pressure, fuel-rich, laminar, premixed propene/oxygen/ argon flat flame was investigated experimentally using molecular beam sampling mass spectrometry (MBMS), laser-induced fluorescence (LIF), and compared to numerical simulations. MBMS was applied to analyze the species profiles of important intermediates in the flames with and without ferrocene doping. The concentration profile of iron atoms was measured with absorption sensitive LIF, which provides absolute number densities without additional calibrations. The flame temperature was obtained by two-line OH LIF measurements. One dimensional numerical simulations of the flames using detailed models from the literature were performed and the... (More)

MBMS was applied to analyze the species profiles of important intermediates in the flames with and without ferrocene doping. The concentration profile of iron atoms was measured with absorption sensitive LIF, which provides absolute number densities without additional calibrations. The flame temperature was obtained by two-line OH LIF measurements. One dimensional numerical simulations of the flames using detailed models from the literature were performed and the modeling results are compared with the experimental measurements. The iron measurements show reasonable agreement with the numerical simulation, while some discrepancies were found at larger heights. The MBMS measurements show a decrease in flame velocity when ferrocene was added, which was not provided by the model. (C) 2009 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc.
