Abstract:Oxymethylene dimethyl ethers (OMEx), having a chemical formula of CH3O-(CH2O)x-CH3 where x varies from 1 to 5, have been widely considered as a promising fuel to partially replace diesel in CI engines in terms of reducing soot emissions. This work is focused on developing a reduced primary reference fuel (PRF)-OMEx chemical mechanism to better describe the combustion and emission characteristics of gasoline/diesel blends with OMEx. The novelty of this work lies in the fact that the OMEx part of the mechanism i… Show more
