A fundamental study on the pyrolysis of hydrocarbons
(Elsevier, 2021-07-10)A newly developed detailed chemical kinetic mechanism, NUIGMech1.1, is used to study the pyrolysis of C1 ¿ C7 hydrocarbons at a constant initial fuel concentration in the temperature range 900 ¿ 2000 K. We observe that, ... -
Theoretical, experimental and modelling studies of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with C2 – C5 alkenes and cyclisation reactions of hydroperoxyl-alkyl radicals forming cyclic ethers and hydroxyl radicals
(NUI Galway, 2021-06-22)This thesis presents a hierarchical study of the reactions of Ḣ atom addition to and abstraction from both linear and branched C2 – C5 alkenes. The subsequent C–C and C–H β-scission reactions and H-atom transfer reactions ...
