Accurate measurement and prediction of laminar burning velocity is important for
characterization of premixed combustion properties of a fuel, development and validation of …

This review discusses the role of laser diagnostics in combustion science and technology. In
its first part, it may guide understanding of advanced diagnostic methods, and is particularly …

A reduced chemical kinetic mechanism for the oxidation of primary reference fuel (PRF) has
been developed and applied to model internal combustion engines. Starting from an …

Reduced chemical kinetic mechanisms for the oxidation of representative surrogate
components of a typical multi-component automotive fuel have been developed and applied …

The laminar flame speeds of neat primary reference fuels (PRFs), n-heptane and iso-octane,
PRF blends, reformer gas, and reformer gas/iso-octane/air mixtures are measured over a …

Laminar flame speed measurements are carried out for premixed iso-octane/air and n-
heptane/air mixtures under conditions of atmospheric pressure, equivalence ratios ranging …

Spherically expanding flames are employed to measure flame velocities, from which are
derived the corresponding laminar burning velocities at zero stretch rate. Iso-octane/air …

The numerical investigation of quenching distances in laminar flows is mainly concerned
with two setups: head-on quenching (HOQ) and side-wall quenching (SWQ). While most of …

Recent high-speed imaging of ignition processes in spray-guided gasoline engines has
motivated the development of the physically-based spark channel ignition monitoring model …

Methylfuran (MF) has become very attractive due to the recent breakthrough in its production
method using the process of dehydration and hydrogenolysis of fructose. MF–gasoline …
