Development of a High Temperature Oxidation Mechanism for Bio-Aviation Fuels

Abstract: Almost all current civil and military aviation around the world use a kerosene-type fuel. However one of the alternatives is to use a mixture of petrochemicals and biofuel, especially methyl esters derived from vegetable oil (Fatty Acid Methyl Esters, FAMEs) that given their properties appear to be one of the most suitable for Aviation fuels. Studies were conducted to develop a fundamental and detailed reaction mechanism for the combustion of bio-aviation fuel through a combination of the existing kerosene bas… Show more

“…This is important since utilising existing engine technology significantly reduces the cost and time scales for implementation. Other technologies, such as hydrogen although important, need further development and their application on a wider scale is a considerable time away [3,4,12]. One of the main advantages of biofuels is that their use can produce significant savings in carbon dioxide emissions (so long as they are grown and processed in a sustainable way).…”

“…A detailed chemical reaction mechanism AFRMv.2.0 2 describes in the paper by Catalanotti et al [3]; has recently been developed which can represent a number of different aviation fuels including bio aviation fuel. In this work we study its predictive performance for combustion within the MAC combustor.…”
