Nitrogen dioxide (NO 2) is an important impurity in coal-bed methane (CBM) and a dominant component of NO x pollution in practical engines. Its promoting effect on methane ignition has been studied in the current experimental and kinetic study. Ignition delay times of NO 2/CH 4/O 2/Ar mixtures, with blending ratios of NO 2: CH 4 of 30: 70, 50: 50 and 70: 30 for stoichiometric methane mixtures were measured in a shock tube. Experiments cover a range of pressures (1.2–10.0 atm) and temperatures (933–1961 K). Under all tested pressures, NO 2 addition promotes the reactivity of methane and reduces the global activation energy at all pressures, and these effects are most significant for the mixtures with highest NO 2 concentrations, at the highest pressures and at the lowest temperatures. To simulate the experimental measurements, five literature NO x sub-mechanisms were integrated with AramcoMech 1.3. The simulations demonstrate that, for the mixtures with low levels of NO x concentrations, the five models agree well with the experimental ignition delay times. For the mixtures with high NO x content, however, all five models are unable to reproduce the measured data, and the level of disagreement increases with increasing NO 2 concentration. An updated mechanism is proposed, based on modifications made as a result of sensitivity and reaction flux analyses performed to quantitatively determine the chemical reasons for NO 2 promoting methane ignition. The results indicate that, NO 2 addition perturbs the branching ratio of key reaction pathways by affecting the structure of the free radical pool at the initial ignition stage of methane oxidation. A new reaction cycle via the following sequence of reactions ĊH 3+ NO 2⇔ CH 3 O ̇+ NO, CH 3 O ̇+ M⇔ CH 2 O+ Ḣ+ M, NO 2+ Ḣ⇔ NO+ O ̇ H, and CH 4+ O ̇ H⇔ ĊH 3+ H 2 O is proposed to explain the observed effect of NO 2 addition on the promotion of methane ignition.
