An experimental and kinetic modeling study of the oxidation of hexane isomers: Developing consistent reaction rate rules for alkanes
(Elsevier, 2019-05-09)
Alkanes are key components in gasoline, jet and diesel fuels and considerably influence the combustion behavior of these fuels because of their wide range of reactivity. An improved understanding of their combustion behavior ...
Testing the validity of a mechanism describing the oxidation of binary n-heptane/toluene mixtures at engine operating conditions
(Elsevier, 2019-11-02)
The aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of the n-heptane/toluene ratio on the reactivity of binary toluene reference fuels (TRFs), through a combined experimental and numerical work. Novel experimental ignition ...
A six-compound, high performance gasoline surrogate for internal combustion engines: Experimental and numerical study of autoignition using high-pressure shock tubes
(Elsevier, 2019-10-25)
This paper presents experimental and modeling data for the autoignition of a novel, six-component, high performance gasoline surrogate fuel comprising ethanol, n-heptane, i-octane, 1-hexene, methylcyclohexane, and toluene ...
Comparative chemical kinetic analysis and skeletal mechanism generation for syngas combustion with NOx chemistry
(American Chemical Society, 2019-12-09)
Emission of nitrogen oxides (NOx) are one of the major environmental concerns arising from the combustion of syngas. Strategies to reduce emission and improve the efficiency of syngas combustion can be developed using ...
