Journal ArticleDOI
A Hierarchical and Comparative Kinetic Modeling Study of C1 − C2 Hydrocarbon and Oxygenated Fuels
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been developed to describe the oxidation of small hydrocarbon and oxygenated hydrocarbon species, such as formaldehyde, methanol, acetaldehyde, and ethanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental and detailed chemical kinetic modeling study of hydrogen and syngas mixture oxidation at elevated pressures
Alan Keromnes,Wayne K. Metcalfe,Karl Alexander Heufer,Nicola Donohoe,Apurba K. Das,Apurba K. Das,Chih-Jen Sung,Jürgen Herzler,Clemens Naumann,Peter Griebel,Olivier Mathieu,Michael Krejci,Eric L. Petersen,William J. Pitz,Henry J. Curran +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism for hydrogen and H2/CO (syngas) mixtures has been updated, rate constants have been adjusted to reflect new experimental information obtained at high pressures and new rate constant values recently published in the literature, and good agreement was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive chemical kinetic combustion model for the four butanol isomers
S. Mani Sarathy,Stijn Vranckx,Kenji Yasunaga,Marco Mehl,Patrick Oßwald,Wayne K. Metcalfe,Charles K. Westbrook,William J. Pitz,Katharina Kohse-Höinghaus,Ravi X. Fernandes,Henry J. Curran +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comprehensive chemical kinetic model for all the four isomers of butanol (e.g., 1-, 2-, iso- and tert-butanol) is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
An ignition delay and kinetic modeling study of methane, dimethyl ether, and their mixtures at high pressures
Ultan Burke,Kieran P. Somers,Peter O’Toole,Chis M. Zinner,Nicolas Marquet,Gilles Bourque,Eric L. Petersen,Wayne K. Metcalfe,Zeynep Serinyel,Henry J. Curran +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, both experimental and chemical kinetic model-predicted ignition delay time data are provided covering a range of conditions relevant to gas turbine environments (T = 600-1600 K, p = 7-41 K, ϕ ǫ = 0.3, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 in ‘air’ mixtures).
Journal ArticleDOI
An experimental and modeling study of propene oxidation. Part 1: Speciation measurements in jet-stirred and flow reactors
Sinéad M. Burke,Wayne K. Metcalfe,Olivier Herbinet,Frédérique Battin-Leclerc,Francis M. Haas,Jeffrey Santner,Frederick L. Dryer,Henry J. Curran +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed chemical kinetic mechanism has been simultaneously developed to describe the combustion characteristics of propene under the experimental conditions described in this study, from jet-stirred and flow reactors and for ignition delay times and flame speed measurements presented in Part II.
