Effect of H2O on macroscopic flame behaviors and combustion reaction mechanism of 1,1-difluoroethane (R152a)
1,1-difluoroethane (R152a) is one of the most prospective low GWP refrigerants but may trigger fires and explosions once it leaks. Understanding the flame propagation process and combustion mechanisms at different relative humidity conditions is essential to use flammable refrigerants safely. In this study, a high-speed camera has recorded the flame propagation of R152a combustion near the flammability limit. Combining with macroscopic experimental phenomena, we revealed the effect of H2O on the microscopic mechanism of R152a combustion by using reactive force field molecular dynamics simulations with a reliable force field. The promotion effects of H2O on the oxidation of R152a were revealed from an atomistic perspective. The differences of oxidation intermediates and products in different environments were analyzed for the first time. The H2O/O2 environment was the most potent promoter of R152a decomposition, followed by the O2 and the pyrolysis environment. The O2/H2O environment reduced the apparent activation energy of R152a, significantly enhanced the consumption rate of R152a, and enriched the number of species. O2 reacts with H2O or H to form OH to accelerate the reaction process. The H2O could provide more OH active fragments for the reaction. Moreover, it promotes the formation of HF and H2, H2O + F→HF + OH, H2O + H→H2 + HO. This study aims to provide a guiding theory for the safe application and disaster prevention of flammable refrigerants.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Refrigeration is published for the International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) by Elsevier. It is essential reading for all those wishing to keep abreast of research and industrial news in refrigeration, air conditioning and associated fields. This is particularly important in these times of rapid introduction of alternative refrigerants and the emergence of new technology. The journal has published special issues on alternative refrigerants and novel topics in the field of boiling, condensation, heat pumps, food refrigeration, carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrocarbons, magnetic refrigeration at room temperature, sorptive cooling, phase change materials and slurries, ejector technology, compressors, and solar cooling.
As well as original research papers the International Journal of Refrigeration also includes review articles, papers presented at IIR conferences, short reports and letters describing preliminary results and experimental details, and letters to the Editor on recent areas of discussion and controversy. Other features include forthcoming events, conference reports and book reviews.
Papers are published in either English or French with the IIR news section in both languages.
