Summary
This book supersedes Gardiner's 1984 "Combustion Chemistry." It is an updated, comprehensive coverage of the aspects of combustion chemistry that are relevant to gas-phase combustion of hydrocarbons. It includes an extended discussion of air pollutant chemistry and aspects of combustion. The book newly reviews elementary reactions of nitrogen, sulfur and chlorine compounds that are relevant to combustion. Methods of combustion modeling and rate coefficient estimation which have been established during the recent years are presented, as well as access to databases for combustion thermochemistry and modeling.
