Concentrating zone 56-------------------Conditioning chamber

The diesel engine takes in and compresses the air. The fuel is injected into the cylinder in atomized form at the end of the compression stroke and is vaporized in the air. Ignition begins by auto-ignition in one or several zones in the combustion chamber where the conditions of temperature, pressure and concentration combine to enable combustion to start. 

Eltenton141 studied the thermal decomposition of a very dilute stream of tetramethyl lead vapour in He (total pressure = 0.4 torr) in a fast flow system (contact time 0.1-0.001 sec) over the temperature range 400-700 °C. The decomposition was essentially complete at 600 °C. A small portion of the effluent from the reaction zone passed directly into the ionization chamber of a mass spectrometer. The reaction was followed by observing the methyl radical concentration. The rate-controlling step observed under these conditions is probably the loss of the first CH3 group by the reaction... 

As the composition of the catalyst changed, the inability to predict the CO/CO2 ratio becomes more and more limiting on the use of the model. The explicit solution was originally applied to the catalyst containing chromia (Cr203) and with relatively poorer diffusivity. With this catalyst and with the operating conditions at that time, the assumption of a constant value of a in each zone was adequate. The chromia was introduced into the catalyst early in the use of the TCC units to oxidize CO and to reduce the concentration of CO in the bottom plenum chamber and in the stack. The presence of too much CO in these parts of the unit could lead... 

The nature of intermediates formed in diffusion flames is similar to the premixed ones, albeit differences in the contacting pattern. In Fig. 11, the species concentration profiles in a laminar ethylene diffusion flame front are presented. The fuel and oxygen diffuse toward each other undergoing virtual annihilation within the flame zone concomitant with the establishment of a peak temperature of about 1600°C. Because premixed systems provide a better control of combustor temperature, and many practical combustion devices operate under diffusion limited conditions, considerable effort has been expended to ensure the rapid mixing of fuel and oxygen in combustion chambers and approach premixed conditions. 

In the method of Belscher [1] iron globules are formed at the maximum possible Fe(CO)5 concentration in the decomposition zone. The apparatus of Fig. 339 is used. The air is flushed out with a moderately fast stream of N g introduced via the inlet tube to a. Then the liquid carbonyl compound is vaporized at a rate of 30 ml./hr. and the vapor fed into the decomposition chamber, which is heated to 200-600°C (depending on the reaction conditions). At this point the Ng flow is either reduced or shut off completely. The tubing from the distillation flask to the decomposition tube (which is surrounded by a vertical heater) must be well insulated or maintained at about 110°C by means of a small electric coil or tape in order to avoid decomposition of the iron carbonyl. The first crop of product does not have the desired properties. A uniform powder consisting of microscopic globules is obtained only after a certain induction period. 

In condition of stratified fuel pre-mixture, temperature difference of the combustion chamber is occurred. LTR is occurred earlier in the zone which is lower concentration beside HTR is opposite.
