No reverse reactions are considered in these reactions. It is likely, therefore, that
the forward reactions advance beyond chemical equilibrium in combustion inside a
furnace with a long residence time. The reaction rate is given for each of the four
reactions as follows:

where [ ] indicates mol concentration [mol/cm 3 ], S = 7.93 exp(-2.48φ ), and φ is the
initial global equivalence ratio, whose value cannot be unity or larger. Values of the
empirical constants used in the above formulae are listed in Table 3.2 .
