Effects of Ethanol and Methanol on the Combustion Characteristics of Gasoline with the Revised Variation Disturbance Method
Shuhao Li,Zhenhua Wen,Junxing Hou,Shuanghui Xi,Pengya Fang,Xiaolong Guo,Yong Li,ZHenghe Wang,Shangjun Li +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , a revised variation disturbance method was proposed to evaluate the effect of methanol and ethanol on the combustion performance of primary fuels, and the results showed that ethanol has a more significant effect on improving the performance of gasoline than methanols.
Experimental and modeling study of ignition-resistant fuels
TL;DR: Zhou et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated relative ignition behavior of some oxygenated fuels and their blends with gasoline surrogates, and developed a method for simplifying ignition delay time correlation that can allow for a more rapid estimation of the ignition behavior at known thermodynamic conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gas phase electrochemical analysis of amino acids and their fragments
TL;DR: In this article, a gas-phase cyclic voltammetry was used to identify and assign Faradaic peaks in the current-voltage spectra to the fragments using stable analogues of the fragments and in situ mass spectroscopy.

Mechanism and modeling of nitrogen chemistry in combustion
James A. Miller,Craig T. Bowman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanisms and rate parameters for the gas-phase reactions of nitrogen compounds that are applicable to combustion-generated air pollution are discussed and illustrated by comparison of results from detailed kinetics calculations with experimental data.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels
TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
