A detailed reaction mechanism for the premixed combustion of n-decane was compiled and the process of n-decane premixed combustion was simulated.The mole fractions of the reactants

the major combustion products and the intermediate species were analyzed.At the same time

the simulation results were compared with the experimental data of the n-decane and kerosene premixed flames

respectively.The results show that the shapes of the profiles of the mole fractions of the reactants and the major combustion products in n-decane flame agree with that in kerosene flame.The simulated profiles of the mole fractions of the reactants and the major combustion products agree with the experimental data of the n-decane and kerosene flames

showing that this detailed reaction mechanism can well reflect the detailed kinetic characteristics of n-decane premixed combustion.Furthermore

through net reaction rate analysis

it's found that major paths consuming n-decane are implemented through thermal decomposition and abstraction of H and OH.
