Results showed a logarithmic linear rela- tionship of the ignition delay time with the reciprocal of temperatures. Under both two diluent conditions, ignition delay time decreased with increased temperature. By multiple linear regression analysis, the ignition delay correlation was deduced. According to this correlation, the calculated ignition delay time in 96% diluent was found to be nearly five times that in 75% diluent. To explain this discrepancy, the hard-sphere collision theory was adopted, and the collision numbers of ethylene to oxygen were calculated. The total collision numbers of ethylene to oxygen were 5.99×10^30 s^-1cm^-3 in 75% diluent and 1.53×10^29 s^-1cm^-3 in 96% diluent （about 40 times that in 75% diluent）. According to the discrepancy between ignition delay time and collision numbers, viz. 5 times corresponds to 40 times, the steric factor can展开更多

The initial postshock conditions cover pressures of 0.09-0.26 MPa, temperatures of 1 227-1 536 K, and oxygen mole fractions of 3.9%-20.7% with an equivalence ratio of 1.0. The correlation formula of ignition delay dependence on pressure, temperature, and oxygen mole fraction was obtained. The current data are in good agreement with available low-pressure experimental data, and they are then compared with the prediction of a kinetic mechanism. The current measurements extend the kinetic modeling targets for the n-decane combustion at low pressures.展开更多

Ignition delay times of multi-component biomass synthesis gas （bio-syngas） diluted in argon were measured in a shock tube at elevated pressure （5, 10and 15 bar, 1 bar = 105 Pa）, wide temperature ranges （1,100-1,7...Ignition delay times of multi-component biomass synthesis gas （bio-syngas） diluted in argon were measured in a shock tube at elevated pressure （5, 10and 15 bar, 1 bar = 105 Pa）, wide temperature ranges （1,100-1,700 K） and various equivalence ratios （0.5, 1.0, 2.0）. Additionally, the effects of the variations of main constituents （H2：CO = 0.125-8） on ignition delays were investigated. The experimental results indicated that the ignition delay decreases as the pressure increases above certain temperature （around 1,200 K） and vice versa. The ignition delays were also found to rise as CO concentration increases, which is in good agreement with the literature. In addition, the ignition delays of bio-syngas were found increasing as the equivalence ratio rises. This behavior was primarily discussed in present work. Experimental results were also compared with numerical predictions of multiple chemical kinetic mechanisms and Li＇s mechanism was found having the best accuracy. The logarithmic ignition delays were found nonlinearly decrease with the H2 concentration under various conditions, and the effects of temperature, equivalence ratio and H2 concentration on the ignition delays are all remarkable. However, the effect of pressure is rela- tively smaller under current conditions. Sensitivity analysis and reaction pathway analysis of methane showed that R1 （H ＋O2= O -9 OH） is the most sensitive reaction promot- ing ignition and R13 （H ＋O2 （＋M） = HO2 （＋M））, R53（CH3＋H （＋M）= CH4 （＋M））, R54 （CH4＋H= CH3 ＋ H2） as well as R56 （CH4 ＋ OH = CH3 ＋ H2O） are key reactions prohibiting ignition under current experimental conditions. Among them, R53 （CH3 ＋ H （＋M） = CH4 （＋M））, R54 （CH4 ＋ H = CH3 ＋ H2） have the largest posi- tive sensitivities and the high contribution rate in rich mixture. The rate of production （ROP） of OH of R1 showed that OH ROP of R1 decreases sharply as the mixture turns rich. Therefore, the ignition delays become longer as the equiva- lence ratio increases.展开更多

The contaminants may change the ignition characteristics of fuels between ground tests and real flights. In order to properly assess the influence of the contaminants on ignition characteristics of hydrocarbon fuels, the effect of water vapor and carbon dioxide on the ignition delay times of China RP-3 kerosene was studied behind reflected shock waves in a preheated shock tube. Experiments were conducted over a wider temperature range of 800-1 500 K, at a pressure of 0.3 MPa, equivalence ratios of 0.5 and 1, and oxygen concentration of 20%. Ignition delay times were determined from the onset of the excited radical OH emission together with the pressure profile. Ignition delay times were measured for four cases： （1） clean gas, （2） gas vitiated with 10% and 20% water vapor in mole, （3） gas vitiated with 10% carbon dioxide in mole, and （4） gas vitiated with 10% water vapor and 10% carbon dioxide, 20% water vapor and 10% carbon dioxide in mole. The results show that carbon dioxide produces an inhibiting effect at temperatures below 1 300 K when Ф = 0.5, whereas water vapor appears to accelerate the ignition process below a critical temperature of about 1 000 K when Ф = 0.5. When both water vapor and carbon dioxide exist together, a minor inhibiting effect is observed at Ф = 0.5, while no effect is found at Ф = 1.0. The results are also discussed preliminary by considering both the combustion reaction mechanism and the thermophysics properties of the fuel mixtures. The current measurements demonstrate vitiation effects of water vapor and carbon dioxide on the autoignition characteristics of China RP-3 kerosene at air-like O2 concentration. It is important to account for such effects when data are extrapolated from ground testing to real flight conditions.展开更多
The shock tube autoignition of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF)/n-heptane blends (DMF)/n-100%, by mole fraction) with equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 over the temperature range of 1200-1800 K and pressures of 2.0 atm a...The shock tube autoignition of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF)/n-heptane blends (DMF)/n-100%, by mole fraction) with equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 over the temperature range of 1200-1800 K and pressures of 2.0 atm and 10.0 atm were investigated. A detailed blend chemical kinetic model resulting from the merging of validated kinetic models for the components of the fuel blends was developed. The experimental observations indicate that the ignition delay times nonlinearly increase with an increase in the DMF addition level. Chemical kinetic analysis including radical pool analysis and flux analysis were conducted to explain the DMF addition effects. The kinetic analysis shows that at lower DMF blending levels, the two fuels have negligible impacts on the consumption pathways of each other.As the DMF addition increases to relatively higher levels, the consumption path of n-heptane is significantly changed due to the competition of small radicals, which primarily leads to the nonlinear increase in the ignition delay times of DMF/n-heptane blends.展开更多
