Flame Characteristics and Ignition Delay Times of 2,5-Dimethylfuran: A Systematic Review With Comparative Analysis

Van Vang Le et al.

Summary: The global push for renewable and carbon-neutral biofuels in response to concerns about CO2 levels, energy security, and fossil fuel depletion has led to the investigation of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) as a promising alternative. This study critically reviewed the laminar flame characteristics, flame instabilities, and ignition delay times of DMF, suggesting its potential use as a fuel for spark ignition engines. Further experimental studies on real engines fueled with DMF are needed for a comprehensive evaluation of this biofuel.

An experimental and kinetic modeling study of gas-phase autoignition of n-Pentadecane at low-to-high temperatures and elevated pressures

Mohsin Raza et al.

Summary: This study investigates the low-to-high temperature oxidation of n-pentadecane using experimental and kinetic modeling approaches. The results show that ignition delay times are sensitive to factors such as pressure, equivalence ratio, and oxygen mole fraction. The updated reaction mechanism improves the performance of n-pentadecane autoignition, especially at low temperatures.

Experimental and modeling study of the autoignition for diesel and n-alcohol blends from ethanol to n-pentanol in shock tube and rapid compression machine

Sixu Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the ignition delay times (IDTs) of n-alcohol/diesel blends and their influencing factors through experiments and simulations. It was found that the IDTs of blends were affected by the chain length of the n-alcohol at different temperatures, and the simulation results showed relatively good agreement with high-temperature ignition data but significantly overestimated the reactivity of blends at low-to-intermediate temperatures.

Autoignition behavior of methanol/diesel mixtures: Experiments and kinetic modeling

Jizhen Zhu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the ignition delay times (IDTs) of methanol/diesel blends with different mixing ratios under various conditions. The research reveals the crossover of IDTs at different temperatures for varying equivalence ratios and the non-linear mixing effect of methanol addition on diesel ignition. Simulation results indicate the competition between methanol and diesel for center dot OH radicals during the ignition process.
