"Experiments and Numerical Simulation on the Laminar Flame Speeds of Dichloromethane and Trichloromethane" by J.C. Leylegian, D.L. Zhu, C.K. Law, and H. Wang,  Combustion and Flame, Vol. 114, pp. 285-293 (1998)

Abstract:

The laminar flame speeds of blends of dichloromethane and trichloromethane with methane in air at roomtemperature and atmospheric pressure were experimentally determined using the counterflow twin-flametechnique, varying both the amount of chlorinated compound in the fuel and the equivalence ratio of theunburned mixture. A detailed kinetic model previously employed for simulation of chloromethane combustionwas expanded to include the oxidation kinetics of dichloromethane and trichloromethane. Numerical simulation shows that the expanded kinetic model predicted the flame speeds to within 3 cm/s of the measuredvalues. Carbon flux and sensitivity analyses indicate that the reaction kinetics of the methane flame doped withchlorinated methanes are qualitatively similar, despite the variation in the chlorinated methane fuel structure.
