A comparative study of the effect of varied reaction environments on a swirl stabilized flame geometry via optical measurements
(Elsevier, 2018-01-04)
The present work is a part of a larger experimental campaign which examines the behaviour of various fuels on a swirl stabilized flame burner configuration. Overall, detailed speciation measurements and temperature ...
The combustion kinetics of the lignocellulosic biofuel, ethyl levulinate
(Elsevier, 2018-04-04)
Ethyl levulinate (Ethyl 4-oxopentanoate) is a liquid molecule at ambient temperature, comprising of ketone and ethyl ester functionalities and is one of the prominent liquid fuel candidates that may be easily obtained from ...
An ab initio/transition state theory study of the reactions of Ċ5H9 species of relevance to 1,3-Pentadiene, Part II: Pressure dependent rate constants and implications for combustion modeling
(American Chemical Society, 2020-05-12)
The temperature- and pressure-dependence of rate constants for several radicals and unsaturated hydrocarbons reactions (1,3-C5H8/1,4-C5H8/cyC(5)H(8) + (H)over dot, C2H4 + (C)over dot(3)H5-a, C3H6 + (C)over dot(2)H(3)) are ...
An experimental, theoretical, and modeling study of the ignition behavior of cyclopentanone
(Elsevier, 2018-07-05)
The ignition delay times of cyclopentanone in air were measured using a high pressure shock tube (HPST) and a rapid compression machine (RCM) over the temperature range of 794-1368 K at P = 15 and 30 bar and at equivalence ...
Evaluation of non-ideal piston stopping effects on the “adiabatic core” and ignition delay time simulation in rapid compression machines
(Elsevier, 2020-05-30)
Piston creep and rebound are two non-ideal piston stopping behaviors in the rapid compression machine. Compared to nominal piston stopping, piston rebound/creep will result in a smaller/bigger 'adiabatic' core zone volume ...
Hierarchical study of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with alkenes: A theoretical study of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with C2–C4 alkenes
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-08)
The present study complements our previous studies of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with C5 alkene species including 1- and 2-pentene and the branched isomers (2-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene, and 3-methyl-1-butene), ...
A comprehensive experimental and modeling study of the ignition delay time characteristics of ternary and quaternary blends of methane, ethane, ethylene, and propane over a wide range of temperature, pressure, equivalence ratio, and dilution
(Elsevier, 2021-08-09)
The ignition delay time (IDT) characteristics of new ternary and quaternary blended C 1 ¿C 3 gaseous hy- drocarbons, including methane/ethane/ethylene and methane/ethane/ethylene/propane, are studied over a wide range of ...
A comparative reactivity study of 1-alkene fuels from ethylene to 1-heptene
(Elsevier, 2020-09-23)
A comparative reactivity study of 1-alkene fuels from ethylene to 1-heptene has been performed using ignition delay time (IDT) measurements from both a high-pressure shock tube and a rapid compression machine, at an ...
A single pulse shock tube study of pentene isomer pyrolysis
(Elsevier, 2020-08-02)
A single-pulse shock tube study of the four pentene isomers is carried out at 2¿±¿0.16¿bar and 900¿1600¿K. C1 to C6 species profiles were recorded using gas chromatography mass spectrometry analyses. The species are ...
A detailed chemical kinetic modeling and experimental investigation of the low- and high-temperature chemistry of n-butylcyclohexane
(Wiley, 2020-11-26)
Chemical kinetic models of gasoline, jet, and diesel fuels and their mixtures with bioderived fuels are needed to assess fuel property effects on efficiency, emissions, and other performance metrics in internal combustion ...
