This Open-Access-Book bundles the knowledge gained from 12 years of research in a joint project (CRC/TRR 129 funded by DFG) on the subject of oxyfuel combustion of solid fuels. Oxyfuel combustion uses an atmosphere of CO₂, H₂O and O₂, which fundamentally changes the combustion behavior – with effects on reaction rates, flame stability and transport processes from atomic to industrial scale. Within the project these processes are investigated experimentally and by simulations of different complexity , for example using molecular dynamic simulations, Large-Eddy-Simulation (LES) and direct numerical simulations. The focus is on pyrolysis, particle combustion, reaction kinetics and radiation properties.Within the scope of this research, new experimental as well as new numerical-simulative methods were developed in about 20 closely interlinked projects, which led to a variety of new findings. This makes this book a valuable source of information for all scientists working on the fundamental aspects of the reactive conversion of solid fuels.
