An experimental and modeling study of shock tube and rapid compression machine ignition of n-butylbenzene/air mixtures
(Elsevier, 2013-08-28)
In our previous work (D. Darcy, C.J. Tobin, K. Yasunaga, J.M. Simmie, J. Wurmel, W.K. Metcalfe, T. Niass, S.S. Ahmed, C.K. Westbrook, H.J. Curran, Combust. Flame 159 (2012) 2219-2232), ignition delay times of n-butylbenzene ...
Ignition delay times, laminar flame speeds, and mechanism validation for natural gas/hydrogen blends at elevated pressures
(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 ...
Autoignition of ethanol in a rapid compression machine
(Elsevier, 2013-12-09)
Ethanol is a renewable source of energy and significant attention has been directed to the development of a validated chemical kinetic mechanism for this fuel. The experimental data for the autoignition of ethanol in the ...
An experimental and modeling study of diethyl carbonate oxidation
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2015-01-19)
Diethyl carbonate (DEC) is an attractive biofuel that can be used to displace petroleum-derived diesel fuel, thereby reducing CO2 and particulate emissions from diesel engines. A better understanding of DEC combustion ...
An updated experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-heptane oxidation
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2016-07-25)
This work presents an updated experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-heptane oxidation. In the experiments, ignition delay times of stoichiometric n-heptaneiair mixtures have been measured in two different high-pressure ...
An experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-hexane oxidation
(Elsevier, 2015-09-11)
Ignition delay times for n-hexane oxidation have been measured in a rapid compression machine (RCM) at stoichiometric conditions and at 15 bar. Due to the high reactivity of n-hexane and non-ideal experimental effects ...
An ignition delay time and chemical kinetic modeling study of the pentane isomers
(Elsevier, 2016-10-26)
Ignition delay times of n-pentane, iso-pentane, and neo-pentane mixtures were measured in two shock tubes and in a rapid compression machine. The experimental data were used as validation targets for the model described ...
Using rapid compression machines for chemical kinetics studies
(Elsevier, 2014-04-26)
Rapid compression machines (RCMs) are used to simulate a single compression stroke of an internal combustion engine without some of the complicated swirl bowl geometry, cycle-to-cycle variation, residual gas, and other ...
An experimental and modeling study of the ignition of dimethyl carbonate in shock tubes and rapid compression machine
(Elsevier, 2017-11-05)
Ignition delay times of dimethyl carbonate DMC were measured using low- and high-pressure shock tubes and in a rapid compression machine (RCM). In this way, the effect of fuel concentration (0.75% and 1.75%), pressure (2.0, ...
