Optimization of a hydrogen combustion mechanism using both direct and indirect measurements
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-07-05)
The Keromnes et al. (2013) mechanism for hydrogen combustion has been optimized using a large set of indirect experimental data, consisting of ignition measurements in shock tubes (566 datapoints in 43 datasets) and rapid ...
Additive tuning redox potential in metallacarboranes by sequencial halogen substitution
(Wiley, 2010-04-21)
The first artificially made set of electron acceptors is presented that are derived from a unique platform Cs[3,3′-Co(C2B9H11)2], for which the redox potential of each differs from its predecessor by a fixed amount. The ...
Experimental and kinetic modeling study of 2-methyl-2-butene: allylic hydrocarbon kinetics
(American Chemical Society, 2015-03-20)
Two experimental studies have been carried out on the oxidation of 2-methyl-2-butene, one measuring ignition delay times behind reflected shock waves in a stainless steel shock tube, and the other measuring fuel, intermediate, ...
Comparison of the performance of several recent syngas combustion mechanisms
(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) ...
An experimental and modeling study of propene oxidation. Part 2: Ignition delay time and flame speed measurements
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-09-11)
Experimental data obtained in this study (Part II) complement the speciation data presented in Part I, but also offer a basis for extensive facility cross-comparisons for both experimental ignition delay time (IDT) and ...
Influence of steam dilution on the ignition of hydrogen, syngas and natural gas blends at elevated pressures
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-11-10)
This paper presents the influence of steam dilution on the autoignition behaviour of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, syngas, methane, and natural gas mixtures under gas turbine-relevant conditions. Rapid compression machine ...
Development of a joint hydrogen and syngas combustion mechanism based on an optimization approach
(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 experimental and kinetic modeling study of the pyrolysis and oxidation of n-C-3-C-5 aldehydes in shock tubes
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2015-08-24)
Due to the increasing interest in the use of biofuels for energy production, it is of great importance to better understand the combustion and thermal decomposition characteristics of species such as aldehydes. These are ...
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 ignition delay and kinetic modeling study of methane, dimethyl ether, and their mixtures at high pressures
(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 ...
