Chemical kinetics of hydrogen atom abstraction from allylic sites by 3O2; Implications for combustion modelling and simulation
Zhou, Chong-Wen; Simmie, John M.; Somers, Kieran; Goldsmith, C. Franklin; Curran, Henry J. (American Chemical Society, 2017-02-14)ABSTRACT: Hydrogen atom abstraction from allylic C−H bonds by molecular oxygen plays a very important role in determining the reactivity of fuel molecules having allylic hydrogen atoms. Rate constants for hydrogen atom ... -
A kinetic modelling study of alcohols operating regimes in a HCCI engine
Pelucchi, Matteo; Bissoli, Mattia; Rizzo, Cristina; Zhang, Yingjia; Somers, Kieran; Frassoldati, Alessio; Curran, Henry J.; Faravelli, Tiziano (SAE International, 2017-09-04)Pursuing a sustainable energy scenario for transportation requires the blending of renewable oxygenated fuels such as alcohols into commercial hydrocarbon fuels. From a chemical kinetic perspective, this requires the ...
