Combustion Characteristics of C5 Alcohols and a Skeletal Mechanism for Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition Combustion Simulation
TL;DR: In this article, the combustion characteristics of 2-methylbutanol and isopentanol and their mixtures with primary reference fuels (PRFs) were studied using a detailed chemical kinetic model obtained from merging previously published mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion and regulated/unregulated emissions of a direct injection spark ignition engine fueled with C3-C5 alcohol/gasoline surrogate blends
TL;DR: In this article, an experimental study based on the toluene reference fuel (TRF) was conducted to investigate the combustion and emissions of C3-C5 alcohol/TRF blends in a gasoline direct injection (GDI) engine.
