Characteristics of Flameless Combustion in 3D Highly Porous Reactors under Diesel Injection Conditions

Figure 16

Comparison of pressure gradient (reaction rate) for heat release in free volume and in different porous reactors (SiC foam reactors and steel wire packing reactor) as a function of initial pressure 𝑝_IB for three initial temperatures 400°C, 500°C, and 600°C (mass of injected fuel is 23.7 mg).
