Optimized chemical mechanism for combustion of gasoline surrogate fuels

TL;DR: In this article, a reduced combustion mechanism of primary reference fuel (PRF) mixtures (n-heptane and iso-octane) is integrated into the published kinetic model, allowing for the formulation of multi-component surrogate fuels (e.g. PRF/toluene) and for the prediction of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) formation in gasoline engines.

Advanced Biofuels and Beyond: Chemistry Solutions for Propulsion and Production.

TL;DR: It will be demonstrated that a fundamental understanding of the combustion process can be instrumental to derive design criteria for the molecular structure of fuel candidates, which can then be targets for the analysis of synthetic pathways and the development of catalytic production routes.

A compact skeletal mechanism for n-dodecane with optimized semi-global low-temperature chemistry for diesel engine simulations

TL;DR: In this article, a skeletal mechanism with 54 species and 269 reactions was developed to predict pyrolysis and oxidation of n-dodecane as a diesel fuel surrogate involving both high-temperature (high-T) and low temperature (low-T), and validated for auto-ignition, perfectly stirred reactors (PSR), flow reactors and laminar premixed flames over a wide range of flame conditions.

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

TL;DR: In this paper, a diesel surrogate fuel model was developed by including n -decane, iso-octane, methylcyclohexane (MCH), and toluene, which represents the n -paraffins, iso −paraffin, cycloalkanes, and aromatic hydrocarbons in diesel fuel, respectively.

Skeletal mechanism reduction through species-targeted sensitivity analysis

TL;DR: In this article, a species-targeted sensitivity analysis (STSA) framework was proposed to estimate the sensitivity of a specific target species to a skeletal kinetic mechanism for a Toluene Reference Fuel (TRF).
