Chemical Structure of Atmospheric Pressure Premixedn-Decane and Kerosene Flames

Development of a skeletal mechanism for diesel surrogate fuel by using a decoupling methodology

“…DoutÉ et al [108] investigated the combustion characteristics of until they reach a steady state, which is satisfactorily captured by the present mechanism. The largest discrepancy between the predictions and measurements exists in the H 2 O concentration in the MCH/O 2 /N 2 flame, which is underestimated by about 20% by the present mechanism, as shown in Fig.…”

Criteria for selection of components for surrogates of natural gas and transportation fuels

“…Liquid transportation fuels are mixtures of paraffins (normal-, iso-, and cyclo-), and aromatics. Previous combustion studies of surrogate formulations for transportation fuels include a fuel-rich premixed flame of kerosene composed of 79% paraffins, 10% cyclo-paraffins, and 11% aromatics studied by Vovelle and co-workers [1]; premixed flames of two gasoline fuels approximately 60% of which were paraffins by Hakansson and coworkers [2].…”

Development of an Experimental Database and Kinetic Models for Surrogate Diesel Fuels

“…Laminar burning velocities and burner-stabilized premixed species profiles are also available and have been used in modeling studies [56]. Vovelle and coworkers have reported measurements from fuel-rich, laminar premixed n-decane flames [57][58][59]. The authors used extractive sampling to determine species profiles for both stable and radical intermediates and products.…”
