CHEE 6750

Mathematical formulations of combustion phenomena and their physical significance will be emphasized. Application of the conservation equations for multicomponent reacting flows by means of the Schwab-Zeldovich formulation will be demonstrated. The general Rankine-Hugoniot relations will be developed to calculate properties across a shock front. Laminar and diffusion flames will be studied. Chemical reactions in boundary layers will be examined and turbulent combustion phenomena will be analyzed.
