Abstract

The dynamics of two stage adiabatic auto-ignition of a homogeneousn-heptane/air mixture at constant volume isanalyzed algorithmically, using the Computational Singular Perturbation (CSP) method. The fast dynamics of thisreactive system become exhausted, while the slow dynamics is characterized by time scales that are of explosive char-acter; i.e. the components of the system that generate these scales tend to lead the system away from equilibrium. Thereactions that are responsible for the generation of these time scales and the species that relate with the explosivemodes are identified with CSP-tools.
