    • A comprehensive experimental and improved kinetic modeling study on the pyrolysis and oxidation of propyne 

      Panigrahy, Snehasish; Liang, Jinhu; Nagaraja, Shashank S.; Zuo, Zhaohong; Kim, Gihun; Dong, Shijun; Kukkadapu, Goutham; Pitz, William J.; Vasu, Subith S.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2020-09-15)
      To improve our understanding of the combustion characteristics of propyne, new experimental data for ignition delay times (IDTs), pyrolysis speciation profiles and flame speed measurements are presented in this study. IDTs ...

    • A comprehensive experimental and kinetic modeling study of 1-and 2-pentene 

      Dong, Shijun; Zhang, Kuiwen; Ninnemann, Erik M.; Najjar, Ahmed; Kukkadapu, Goutham; Baker, Jessica; Arafin, Farhan; Wang, Zhandong; Pitz, William J.; Vasu, Subith S.; Sarathy, S. Mani; Senecal, Peter K.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2020-10-15)
      1- and 2-pentene are components in gasoline and are also used as representative alkene components in gasoline surrogate fuels. Most of the available ignition delay time data in the literature for these fuels are limited ...

    • An experimental and chemical kinetic modeling study of 1,3-butadiene combustion: Ignition delay time and laminar flame speed measurements 

      Zhou, Chong-Wen; Li, Yang; Burke, Ultan; Banyon, Colin; Somers, Kieran P.; Ding, Shuiting; Khan, Saadat; Hargis, Joshua W.; Sikes, Travis; Mathieu, Olivier; Petersen, Eric L.; AlAbbad, Mohammed; Farooq, Aamir; Pan, Youshun; Zhang, Yingjia; Huang, Zuohua; Lopez, Joseph; Loparo, Zachary; Vasu, Subith S.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2018-09-10)
      Ignition delay times for 1,3-butadiene oxidation were measured in five different shock tubes and in a rapid compression machine (RCM) at thermodynamic conditions relevant to practical combustors. The ignition delay times ...

    • An experimental and detailed kinetic modeling study of the pyrolysis and oxidation of allene and propyne over a wide range of conditions 

      Panigrahy, Snehasish; Liang, Jinhu; Kumer Ghosh, Manik; Wang, Quan-De; Zuo, Zhaohong; Nagaraja, Shashank; El-SaborMohamed, A. Abd; Kim, Gihun; Vasu, Subith S.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2021-07-27)
      Allene and propyne are important intermediates in the pyrolysis and oxidation of higher hydrocarbon fuels, and they are also a major source of propargyl radical formation, which can recombine into different C 6 H 6 isomers ...

    • An experimental, theoretical, and modeling study of the ignition behavior of cyclopentanone 

      Zhang, Kuiwen; Lokachari, Nitin; Ninnemann, Erik; Khanniche, Sarah; Green, William H.; Curran, Henry J.; Vasu, Subith S.; Pitz, William J. (Elsevier, 2018-07-05)
      The ignition delay times of cyclopentanone in air were measured using a high pressure shock tube (HPST) and a rapid compression machine (RCM) over the temperature range of 794-1368 K at P = 15 and 30 bar and at equivalence ...

    • The influence of iso-butene kinetics on the reactivity of di-isobutylene and iso-octane 

      Lokachari, Nitin; Panigrahy, Snehasish; Kukkadapu, Goutham; Gihun, Kim; Vasu, Subith S.; Pitz, William J.; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2020-09-06)
      The continuous development of a core C-0 - C-4 kinetic mechanism generally involves updating it using reliable kinetics and thermodynamics and may also involve the inclusion of missing reaction pathways to improve the ...
