Abstract

Automated procedures have been applied to reduce a reaction mechanism describing the oxidation of cyclohexane from 499 species to 60 necessary species. The quasi steady state approximation (QSSA) combined with reaction lumping is applied to further eliminate a number of intermediate species. The resulting 35 species mechanism gives predictions of both the pressure - ambient temperature (p-Ta) ignition diagram and ignition delay times which are in good agreement with those of the full scheme at the low temperature ignition boundary, thus facilitating the calculation of autoignition temperature (AIT). The kinetic features of the reduced mechanisms have been analysed using element flux visualization software.
