Cool flames play a critical role in ignition timing, burning rate, burning limits, engine
knocking, and emissions in conventional and advanced combustion engines. This paper …

The chemical modeling of combustion treats the chemical conversion of hundreds of species
through thousands of reactions. Recent advances in theoretical methodologies and …

Low-temperature flames such as cool flames, warm flames, double flames, and auto-ignition
assisted flames play a critical role in the performance of advanced engines and fuel design …

Turbulent combustion will remain central to the next generation of combustion devices that
are likely to employ blends of renewable and fossil fuels, transitioning eventually to …

Internal combustion engines are the dominant power sources in transport, accounting for
significant amounts of fuel consumption and pollutant emissions. Low-temperature …

Abstract Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) behavior is an essential feature of low-
temperature oxidation for large hydrocarbon fuels, which is of particular relevance to cool …

A criterion based on chemical explosive mode analysis (CEMA) is proposed to identify
different local combustion modes, such as auto-ignition, diffusion-assisted ignition, and local …

Achieving fast and efficient combustion is considered as the primary difficulty in overcoming
the high-Mach-number scramjet. A novel injection strategy with coflows has been proposed …

Cool flames, being essential features of chemical kinetics of large hydrocarbon fuels, are
closely related to the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) phenomenon and engine …

In diesel engines, combustion is initiated by a two-staged autoignition that includes both low-
and high-temperature chemistry. The location and timing of both stages of autoignition are …
