An RCM experimental and modeling study on CH4 and CH4/C2H6 oxidation at pressures up to 160 bar
(Elsevier, 2017-06-13)
The oxidation of CH4 and CH4/C2H6 mixtures were studied at pressures relevant to knocking in large bore natural gas engines. The experiments were carried out in a rapid compression machine (RCM) at end of compression (EOC) ...
Cyclopentane combustion. Part II. Ignition delay measurements and mechanism validation
(Elsevier, 2017-06-12)
This study reports cyclopentane ignition delay measurements over a wide range of conditions. The measurements were obtained using two shock tubes and a rapid compression machine, and were used to test a detailed low- and ...
Probing the low-temperature chemistry of ethanol via the addition of dimethyl ether
(Elsevier, 2017-11-28)
Considering the importance of ethanol (EtOH) as an engine fuel and a key component of surrogate fuels, the further understanding of its auto-ignition and oxidation characteristics at engine-relevant conditions (high pressures ...
