Abstract
Temperature oscillations for Methane and Ethylene fuel mixtures oxidation at reduced temperatures were calculated using the transient perfectly stirred reactor model. It was found that the oscillations are controlled by the heat loss to the surroundings and are independent of inlet temperatures. Also found that the recombination channel route is not prevalent in lean and stoichiometric mixtures and that there is plenty of evidence that a simple radical scavenging by the fuel is the controlling mechanism.
