Abstract
Absolute CN and CH radical concentrations were determined in situ during the combustion of a graphite substrate in premixed, laminar, low-pressure, H2/O2 flames for two different equivalence ratios, φ = 1 and φ = 1.5). For CN measurements, a small amount of NO (l.8 %) was added. The CN concentrations were three times higher for the rich flame than to the stoichiometric flame. CH concentrations were slightly higher for the stoichiometric flame than for the rich flame. The observed CH/CN concentration ratio was substantially lower compared to NO doped low-pressure CH4/O2 flames. The obtained quantitative information can serve as a first calibration point for detailed numerical simulations of the burning solid graphite, which are based on the concept of surface elementary reactions.
