Thermodynamic charts – Wet mixtures and combustion charts

Stoichiometric combustion; stoichiometric combustion

Combustion without excess or deficiency of air, where all available oxygen is completely consumed.

Combustion non stoichiométrique; non-stoichiometric combustion

Combustion with too much or too little air.

Biard chart; Biard chart

Thermodynamic diagram showing, for a given freezing temperature, the oxygen concentration [O₂] on the abscissa and the carbon dioxide concentration [CO₂] on the ordinate, for different values of the air factor λ and the ratio [CO]/[CO₂].

Bunte chart; Bunte chart

A variant of the Ostwald diagram in which the x-axis is the sum of the oxygen concentration [O₂] and the carbon dioxide concentration [CO₂].

Carrier chart; Diagramme de Carrier

Thermodynamic diagram with dry temperature t on the x-axis and specific...
