Abstract: This paper discusses the concept of enhancing the yield of a chemical reaction using a rapid heating and quenching process. In this process, the heating rate is so rapid that a chemical equilibrium mixture of products does not have time to be established; therefore, compared with the rates of the chemical reactions the concentration of certain species may be enhanced. This paper analyzes an N2 O2 system to demonstrate this idea and discusses the effects of parameters such as pressure, heating rate, and quenching rate.
