Multistep Mechanism Reaction Rates
• A sequence of intermediate reactions leading from overall-reactants to overall-products
• L steps, i = 1, 2,… L
• N species, j = 1, 2,… N; some are intermediate (not in overall products or reactants)
• Example 2𝐻2 + 𝑂2 → 2𝐻2 𝑂
• Forward and reverse intermediate steps

Steady State Approximation
• In some reaction steps, the slow creation and rapid consumption of radicals
cause the radical concentration to reach steady-state quickly
• Makes some differential equation algebraic (simplifies solution)
• Example: Zelovich two-step system
𝑘1
• 𝑂 + 𝑁2 → 𝑁𝑂 + 𝑁
• This is a relatively “slow” reaction, but N is highly reactive and is consumed as soon as it is created
𝑘2
• 𝑁 + 𝑂2 → 𝑁𝑂 + 𝑂
• Very fast consumption of N
• Production minus Consumption of N radical
•
𝑑𝑁
𝑑𝑡
= 𝑘1 𝑂 𝑁2 − 𝑘2 𝑁 𝑂2
• Since it is very fast and reaches steady state almost right away
• 𝑁

Partial Equilibrium
• Some reaction steps of a mechanism are much faster in
both forward and reverse directions than others
• Usually chain propagating (or branching) reactions are
bi-molecular and faster than ter-molecular
recombination reactions
• Treat fast reactions as if they are equilibrated
• This allows them to be treated using algebraic equations and
reduces the number of differential equations that must be
solved.
Example (fast bi-molecular, slow ter-molecular steps)
• Reaction: 2𝐴2 + 𝐵2 → 2𝐴2 𝐵
• 𝐴 + 𝐵2 ↔ 𝐴𝐵 + 𝐵

Chapter 5 Some Important Chemical Mechanisms
• Hydrocarbon (𝐶𝑥 𝐻𝑦 ) combustion has 2 steps
• 𝐶𝑥 𝐻𝑦 + 𝑂2 → 𝐶𝑂 + ⋯
• 𝐶𝑂 + 𝑂2 → 𝐶𝑂2 + ⋯
• This second step
• is “slow” unless 𝐻2 or 𝐻2 𝑂 are present (these molecules help produce 𝑂𝐻)
• Produces most of the chemical heat release
Chapter 6 Coupling Chemical and Thermal Analysis of
Reacting systems
• Identify four reactor systems, p 184
1.
Constant pressure and fixed Mass
• Time dependent, well mixed
2.
Constant-volume fixed-mass
• Time dependent, well mixed
3.
Well-stirred reactor
• Steady, different inlet and exit conditions
4.
Plug-Flow
• Steady, dependent on location
• Coupled Energy, species production, and
state constraints
• For plug flow also need momentum since
speeds and pressure vary with location
• Assume we know “production rates” per
unit volume

• Heat: Energy transfer at a boundary due to temperature difference
• When there is a large species gradient, diffusion contributes to heat flux
