Petroleum-derived gasoline is currently the most widely used fuel for transportation
propulsion. The design and operation of gasoline fuels is governed by specific physical and …

Biodiesel combustion in diesel engines is associated with reduced carbon monoxide,
particulate matter and unburned hydrocarbons emissions, but several concerns remain …

The octane responses of gasoline/ethanol mixtures are not well understood because of the
unidentified intermolecular interactions in such blends. In general, when ethanol is blended …

Low-octane gasolines (RON∼ 50–70 range) are prospective fuels for gasoline compression
ignition (GCI) internal combustion engines. GCI technology utilizing low-octane fuels has the …

Recent decades have seen increasingly restrictive regulations applied to gasoline engines.
Gasoline combustion chemistry must be investigated to achieve a better understanding and …

Oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a promising technique for converting methane to
higher hydrocarbons in a single reactor. Catalytic OCM is known to proceed via both gas …

Surrogate mixtures are routinely used for understanding gasoline fuel combustion in engine
simulations. The general trend in surrogate formulation has been to increase the number of …

We investigate the sensitivity of the ignition delay time, τ ign, of n-butanol to uncertainties in
the rate-rule kinetic rate parameters, at various initial temperatures (600–1000 K), pressures …

This work examines the oxidation of a well-characterized, high-octane-number FACE (fuel
for advanced combustion engines) F gasoline. Oxidation experiments were performed in a …

Investigating the combustion chemistry of gasoline surrogate fuels promises to improve
detailed reaction mechanisms used for simulating their combustion. In this work, the …
