A numerical method for solving these equations is given in Horlock and Winterbone (1986), based
on the original paper by Lavoie et al. (1970).
Figure 12.7 shows th e results of performin g such calculations using a simple c om puter program.
The coefficients in the program were evaluated using the data presented in Table 9.3 in Chapter 9, but
with t he addition of OH and N. The three diagrams are based on combustion of octane in air at a
constant pressure of 30 bar, and show the effect of varying equivalence ratio, f, at different te m-
peratures. The conditions are the same as quoted in Heywood (1988). Figure 12.7(a) shows the
results for the lowest ...
