Ferrocene Suppression of Methane-Hydrogen Explosions: Experimental and Kinetic Data

Ferrocene at 0.3 g·L⁻¹ decreased maximum explosion pressure by 95.49% and increased flame propagation time by 597.67% in pipe experiments. The dataset, created by Shuo Wang and last updated in April 2026, contains results from experiments and chemical kinetic simulations investigating suppression mechanisms. It provides quantitative measurements of flame speed, pressure attenuation, and radical consumption for three ferrocene concentrations.

Use Cases

• Modeling the effect of ferrocene concentration on explosion pressure based on the provided 68.03% to 95.49% reduction data
• Simulating radical consumption in chain reactions based on the described kinetic roles of FeC₅H₅, Fe, and FeO
• Analyzing the relationship between flame propagation time and inhibitor concentration based on the 93.02% to 597.67% increase figures
• Studying catalytic cyclic reactions of iron-containing species in methane-hydrogen mixtures based on the described mechanism

Strengths

• Provides specific, quantitative results for three ferrocene concentrations (0.1, 0.2, 0.3 g·L⁻¹)
• Integrates experimental measurements (flame speed, pressure) with chemical kinetic modeling insights
• Includes detailed percentage changes for key explosion parameters (e.g., 597.67% increase in propagation time)

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• The dataset is small (188.9 KB), indicating limited scope or a focused experimental study
• Description metadata is limited; actual data structure and completeness require manual inspection
