Negative Temperature Coefficient Behaviour in Diluted Methane Oxidation. Effect of Pressure

The definition of new combustion technologies implies the exploitation of key parameters of combustion (namely T, P and mixture composition) for realizing CLEAN and EFFICIENT processes. In this framework, MILD Combustion is one of the most promising process. The evolution of the oxidation process is significantly affected by mixture high inlet sensible enthalpy and reactants low concentration. It is necessary to enlarge the knowledge on basic aspects (kinetics, characteristic times, reactive region features).
