520 _aFollowing elucidation of the basics of thermodynamics and detailed explanation of chemical kinetics of reactive mixtures, readers are introduced to unique and effective mathematical tools for the modeling, simulation and analysis of chemical non-equilibrium phenomena in combustion and flows. The reactor approach is presented considering thermochemical reactors as the focal points. Novel equations of chemical kinetics compiling chemical thermodynamic and transport processes make reactor models universal and easily applicable to the simulation of combustion and flow in a variety of propulsion and energy generation units. Readers will find balanced coverage of both fundamental material on chemical kinetics and thermodynamics, and detailed description of mathematical models and algorithms, along with examples of their application. Researchers, practitioners, lecturers, and graduate students will all find this work valuable. The authors, who are recognized as some of the top researchers in their field and with over thirty years of experience, have developed their own original approaches, methods, and algorithms Presents a wide variety of examples of the application of proposed methods, allowing readers to understand the subject in depth and construct their own original models Will appeal to a wide readership because of the balanced coverage of fundamental material on chemical kinetics and thermodynamics
