thermodynamics, and will cover combustion processes both with and without dissociation. It will be
found that equilibrium thermodynamics enables a large number of calculations to be performed but,
even with dissociation included, it does not allow the calculation of formation of pollutants the
production of which are controlled both by mixing rates (fluid mechanics) and reaction rates
(thermodynamics).
10.1 SIMPLE CHEMISTRY
Combustion is a chemical reaction and hence a knowledge of basic chemistr y is required before it can
be analysed. An extremely simple reaction can be written as
2CO þ O
