Ignition delay times were measured behind reflected shock waves in a shock tube for a wide
variety of distillate fuels over a range of temperatures, pressures and mixtures. The fuels …

Fuel ignition quality, measured in the form of Derived Cetane Number (DCN), is an important
part of integrating fuels, including sustainable aviation fuels, in compression ignition …

The autoignition characteristics of conventional jet fuels (category A) and alternative fuels
with targeted properties (category C) are investigated using a rapid compression machine …

Electrified aircraft are a promising solution to reduce aviation's carbon footprint across
general and commercial aviation sectors. However, many current conceptual design studies …

A novel three-color, three-species laser absorption sensor for measurement of small (C2–
C4) alkenes is introduced. This scheme, combined with an existing two-color CH 4 ICL laser …

The present work discusses the development and application of a machine-learning-based
model to predict the enthalpy of combustion of various oxygenated fuels of interest. A …

With growing interest in sustainable civil supersonic and hypersonic aviation, there is a need
to model the combustion of alternative, sustainable jet fuels. This work presents numerical …

To address the environmental issues caused by traditional aviation fuels, the use of new
alternative jet fuels (AJF) is emerging. C1 fuel, due to its excellent performance, is used as a …

In this work, the effect of kerosene composition on bluff-body, swirl stabilised spray flames is
investigated using flame visualisation techniques. Two kerosene types were investigated: A …

This work presents an accurate yet simplified partial least squares model to predict the
kinematic viscosity of conventional and alternative jet fuels at− 20° C using comprehensive …
