Time-resolved simplified chemical kinetics modelling using computational singular perturbation

A CO-CH4-air reaction system is used to demonstrate the computational singular perturbation (CSP) method for deriving time-resolved simplified chemical kinetics models. CSP provides a programmable algorithm to group the given collection of elementary reactions into reaction groups which are ordered according to their speed. The concept of Importance Index k(m)exp s is introduced: k(m)exp s is defined to be a number between 0 and 1 which measures the importance of the m-th reaction group to the s-th reactant and can readily be computed from data generated by CSP. It is suggested that the robustness of the solutions of the reaction system can be qualitatively assessed by inspecting the Importance Index data.
