From a detailed 32 species scheme, we obtain reduced schemes (31 to 14 species). and we choose the one with 14 species for the next step.
Fig1 : Comparison between the reference trajectories of the target species, the temperature and the flame speed (in black), and the trajectories computed with the reduced mechanism with 14 transported species and 42 reactions, after a DRGEP species reduction (in red).
From the reduced scheme with 14 species, the DRGEP reaction step displays the associated 42 reactions (forward, reverse and global) with their rank :

After this step, by comparing the reference trajectories with the new ones, we choose to delete 16 reactions, so the next step is performed with 14 species and 26 reactions.

QSS step
The QSS step provides the QSS criteria of each species and the different links with the others species :

We choose to put the species CH3O and HCO in QSS hypothesis due to their low QSS coefficient. The species HO2 could have been a good candidate too but it is linked to himself (non linearity).
In order to obtain the trajectories of the 14-species 26-reaction reduced scheme with these 2 species in QSS hypothesis, we run the getQSSfile step and we obtain the following graphs.We observe that the final state and the shape of the trajectories are conserved. It is under these conditions that the optimisation step will be efficient.

Optimisation
The final step of the ORCh method, the genetic algorithm, enables to recover the trajectories of the target species. Firstly, we allowed a 10 % variation on the pre exponential factor, the temperature exposant and 6 % on the energy activation in order to find their optimal values.
A population of 42 elements was used during 48 generations.
Secondly, in order to obtain more precise trajectories, we allowed a 1 % variation on the pre exponential factor, the temperature exposant and the energy activation. 34 more generations were performed in that case.
The following trajectories of the temperature, the flame speed and the target species match perfectly the ones of the reference detailed scheme with only 12 transported species and 26 reactions.
