NOx EMISSION FROM A SPARK IGNITION ENGINE USING 30% ISO-BUTANOL–GASOLINE BLEND: PART 2—IGNITION TIMING
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of varying ignition timing on NOx emission, exhaust temperature, knock occurrence and thermal efficiency in a spark ignition engine has been experimentally investigated, and the results show that retarding ignition timing causes the exhaust temperature to increase.

Kinetics and Mechanism of Methanol Oxidation in Supercritical Water
TL;DR: In this article, a set of consecutive reactions (CH3OH → CH2O → CO → CO2) with pseudo-first-order global kinetics were used to validate a detailed chemical kinetics model for methanol oxidation in supercritical water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrocarbon Oxidation at High Temperatures
TL;DR: In this article, the authors described a mechanism for the separation and elimination of unimportant reactions with the aid of the present kinetic data for the elementary reactions involved, which explains, without fitting, the currently available experimental results for laminar premixed flames of alkanes, alkenes and acetylene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low and intermediate temperature oxidation of ethanol and ethanol–PRF blends: An experimental and modeling study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present new experimental species profile measurements for the low and intermediate temperature oxidation of ethanol under knock-prone conditions and show that ethanol exhibits no global low temperature reactivity at these conditions, although they note the heterogeneous decomposition of ethanol to ethylene and water.
