Abstract: | Large and complex (nonlinear) models of chemical kinetics are one of the major obstacles in simulations of reacting flows. In the present work a new approach for an automatic reduction of chemical kinetics models, the so-called Global Quasi-Linearization (GQL) method is presented. The method is similar to the ILDM and CSP approaches in the sense that it is based on a decomposition into fast/slow motions and on slow invariant manifolds, but has a global character which allows us to overcome difficulties with the application of slow invariant manifolds and significantly simplifies the construction procedure for approximation of the slow invariant system manifold. The method is implemented within the standard ILDM method and applied to a number of model examples and to a meaningful combustion chemistry model. |
