Currently, the development of alternative and green energy sources has been being strongly
pushed aiming to recoup the lack of fossil energy, to meet the ever-increasing demand of …

Many practical soot-emitting combustion systems such as diesel and jet engines rely on
diffusion flames for efficient and reliable operation. Efforts to mitigate soot emissions from …

Conventional transportation fuels used in aviation (jet fuel) or in ground transportation
(gasoline, diesel) contain multitude of hydrocarbon components and are difficult to be …

An existing comprehensive kinetic hydrocarbon oxidation model has been augmented and
revised for a detailed analysis of n-heptane flame chemistry. The analysis was enabled by …

Repetitive hydrogen-abstraction and methyl-and acetylene-addition reaction sequences that
contribute to the formation and growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during …

This paper is concerned with the formation of one-and two-ring aromatic species in near
atmospheric-pressure opposed-flow diffusion flames of 1, 3-butadiene (1, 3-C 4 H 6). The …

This paper is concerned with the investigation of the chemical structure of a low-pressure,
fuel-rich (ɸ= 1.8) premixed laminar flame fueled with 2-methyl-2-butene employing flame …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are formed in fuel-rich and sooting hydrocarbon
flames. These compounds and smaller aromatic flame constituents, such as benzene …

This paper presents a comprehensive potential energy surface (PES) for hydrogen atom
addition to and abstraction from 2-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene, and 3-methyl-1 …

The pyrolysis of 1-hexene was studied in a flow reactor by synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet
photoionization mass spectrometry and gas chromatography combined with mass …
