In the present work, gas-phase reactions between opposing streams of mixtures of hydrogen (H2) and methane (CH4) in the presence of volumetric energy input were simulated. The goal of the simulations is to estimate the concentrations of precursors responsible for the formation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). These estimates are expected to help in understanding fundamental mechanisms of CNT formation and in controlling the synthesis process through parameters such as inlet composition and temperature, reactor pressure and absorbed energy. The simulation employs gas-phase kinetics of the GRI-2.11 mechanism with only reactions involving molecules that contain C and H atoms. The results indicate that the concentrations of H radicals, C2H2 and C atoms increase significantly with increases in volumetric energy deposition rate beyond a threshold.

In the present work, gas-phase reactions for three different hydrocarbon-hydrogen mixtures (CH4+H2, C2H2+H2 and C2H4+H2) in the presence of volumetric energy input were simulated in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor. The goal of the simulations is to estimate the concentrations of species responsible for the formation of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). These estimates are expected to aid in understanding fundamental mechanisms of CNT formation and in controlling the synthesis process through process parameters such as inlet composition and temperature of the mixture, reactor pressure and microwave power. The simulation employs gas-phase kinetics of the GRI-2.11 mechanism with only reactions involving neutral molecules that contain C and H atoms. The results indicate that the concentrations of H radicals and C atoms increase with increases in energy deposition rate.
