“…Furthermore, it has demonstrated remarkable potential as a high-performance fuel additive for internal combustion engines . However, the widespread adoption of n -decane as an energy carrier is impeded by critical safety concerns that necessitate resolution before achieving social acceptance. − This fuel’s production, handling, transportation, and storage tail inherent explosion hazards that demand meticulous attention and adequate mitigation measures. − Instances such as fuel spray resulting from broken pipelines or containers have the potential to induce severe accidents, including fires, explosions, and the deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) phenomenon. − …”

This research aims to conduct a comprehensive investigation and analysis of the effects of particle size and concentration on crucial explosion parameters in n-decane aerosols. Two sets of n-decane aerosols with different concentrations were initially measured, with Sauter mean diameters of 22 and 38 μm, respectively. These measurements served as the foundation for understanding the impact of the particle size on explosion parameters. Subsequently, experiments were performed on n-decane aerosols with various concentrations, utilizing an ignition energy of 40.32 J. The analysis focused on critical explosion parameters including the lower flammability limit, explosion pressure, explosion temperature, and flame propagation delay time. Through thorough examination of the data obtained from these experiments, the research elucidated the relationship between n-decane concentration, particle size, and these explosion parameters.
