the GRI-Mech mechanism
The GRI-Mech mechanism is a detailed set of chemical reactions used to model how natural gas, mainly methane, burns in engines and turbines. It includes numerous reactions that describe how molecules react, produce heat, and form byproducts like carbon dioxide and water. This detailed model helps scientists and engineers predict combustion behavior accurately, optimizing performance and reducing emissions. Essentially, GRI-Mech serves as a comprehensive blueprint of methane combustion, enabling better design and control of energy systems involving natural gas.
