Energy
This page presents examples of Kintech Lab activity in solving funamental problems concerning energy transformation and production.
Research Activity
| Problem | Activity |
|---|---|
| Chemical mechanisms for combustion of hydrocarbons in a wide range of ER, pressure and temperature | Ab initio recovery of the nessesary thermodynamic and kinetic data. Elaboration and testing of mechanisms. |
| Features of detonation wave propagation | Determination of detonation cell size and chemical composition behind the detonation wave. |
| Interaction of non-equilibrium plasma with air-fuel mixture | Determination of combustion limits, flame velosity, and ignition time |
| Kinetics of hydrogen-rich gas production from waste | Optimization of the chemical composition of the fuel gas. |
Case Study Examples:
- Aviation kerosene combustion: multiscale, first-principles-based generation and verification of kinetic mechanisms
- Plasma-assisted hydrogen production from H2S
- Plasma-melt technology for waste treatment and syngas production
