Modeling Hydrocarbon Fuels: From 5 to 60 Atoms

Listen to Charles Westbrook as he tells us how powerful computers allowed him to simulate the chemistry from methane in 1980 to hexadecane today. Westbrook is a physicist at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, president of the Combustion Institute, and chief scientist of the Model Fuels Consortium. This video is part of a series about the impact of combustion modeling and simulation on global energy issues. Brought to you by Reaction Design. http://www.reactiondesign.com
