Ailton Donadony Fernandes Gonçalves is a Researcher at HyLab since January 2024. I'm a Bachelor in Chemical and Biological Engineering (ISEL) and Master in Chemical and Biological Engineering - Chemical Processes (ISEL). Have prior experience as a software analyst and monitor at the Laboratório de Tecnologia Química at ISEL. In my master's degree thesis, entitled "Premixed hydrogen combustion: kinetic predictions of flame behaviour", I did a deep study about hydrogen flame properties. The study focused on the adiabatic flame temperature, laminar flame speed and the operation limits while using pure hydrogen or hydrogen blends with natural gas and biogas. Also, a new formula to calculate hydrogen flames temperature was developed. I used several tools, such as Cantera library on Python, MATLAB, Aspen Hysys, LaTeX and others. At HyLab, the main responsabilities rely on the research, retrofitting and development of new combustion systems, focused on using non-fossil fuels. For that, labora
