    • A fundamental study on the pyrolysis of hydrocarbons 

      Nagaraja, Shashank S.; Sahu, Amrit B.; Panigrahy, Snehasish; Curran, Henry J. (Elsevier, 2021-07-10)
      A newly developed detailed chemical kinetic mechanism, NUIGMech1.1, is used to study the pyrolysis of C1 ¿ C7 hydrocarbons at a constant initial fuel concentration in the temperature range 900 ¿ 2000 K. We observe that, ...

    • An ignition delay time and chemical kinetic modeling study of the pentane isomers 

      Bugler, John; Heufer, Karl A.; Curran, Henry J. (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 ...
