    • Comparison of the performance of several recent syngas combustion mechanisms 

      Olm, Carsten; Zsély, István Gy; Varga, Tamás; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2015-01-22)
      A large set of experimental data was accumulated for syngas combustion: ignition studies in shock tubes (732 data points in 62 datasets) and in rapid compression machines (492/47), flame velocity determinations (2116/217) ...

    • A comprehensive experimental and modeling study of isobutene oxidation 

      Zhou, Chong-Wen; Li, Yang; O'Connor, Eoin; Somers, Kieran P.; Thion, Sébastien; Keesee, Charles; Mathieu, Olivier; Petersen, Eric L.; DeVerter, Trent A.; Oehlschlaeger, Matthew A.; Kukkadapu, Goutham; Sung, Chih-Jen; Alrefae, Majed; Khaled, Fathi; Farooq, Aamir; Dirrenberger, Patricia; Glaude, Pierre-Alexandre Glaude; Battin-Leclerc, Frédérique; Santner, Jeffrey; Ju, Yiguang; Held, Timothy; Haas, Francis M.; Dryer, Frederick L.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2016-03-17)
      Isobutene is an important intermediate in the pyrolysis and oxidation of higher-order branched alkanes, and it is also a component of commercial gasolines. To better understand its combustion characteristics, a series of ...

    • Development of a joint hydrogen and syngas combustion mechanism based on an optimization approach 

      Curran, Henry J. (Wiley, 2016-05-20)
      A comprehensive and hierarchical optimization of a joint hydrogen and syngas combustion mechanism has been carried out. The Keromnes et al. (Combust Flame, 2013, 160, 995-1011) mechanism for syngas combustion was updated ...

    • An ignition delay and kinetic modeling study of methane, dimethyl ether, and their mixtures at high pressures 

      Burke, Ultan; Somers, Kieran P.; O’Toole, Peter; Zinner, Chis M.; Marquet, Nicolas; Bourque, Gilles; Petersen, Eric L.; Metcalfe, Wayne K.; Serinyel, Zeynep; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-09-29)
      The development of accurate chemical kinetic models capable of predicting the combustion of methane and dimethyl ether in common combustion environments such as compression ignition engines and gas turbines is important ...

    • Ignition delay times, laminar flame speeds, and mechanism validation for natural gas/hydrogen blends at elevated pressures 

      Donohoe, Nicola; Heufer, Alexander; Metcalfe, Wayne K.; Curran, Henry J.; Davis, Marissa L.; Mathieu, Olivier; Plichta, Drew; Morones, Anibal; Petersen, Eric L.; Güthe, Felix (Elsevier, 2013-12-30)
      New experimental ignition delay time data measured in both a shock tube and in a rapid compression machine were taken to determine the increase in reactivity due to the addition of hydrogen to mixtures of methane and natural ...
