reasonable mixing rate for C2H6 Oxygen mixture -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

September 12, 2008, 04:57	reasonable mixing rate for C2H6 Oxygen mixture	#1
N. Schiepel Guest Posts: n/a	I want to simulate the following reaction 2C2H6 + 7O2 = 6H2O + 4CO2 in a cicular pipe. During the simulation I found out that the temperature at some locations reaches a value above 4000 K. I think this value is over-perdicted and want to set a limit for mixing rate in my model. But how large is the reasonable value in this reaction? In the ANSYS document (ANSYS CFX-Solver Modeling Guide, ANSYS CFX Release 11,0 page 265) I can only find the value for methane-air mixture. Can anyone help me? Thanks.
