A methodology to replicate LTGC engine conditions in a single-zone model and validate gasoline surrogate formulations versus experimental measurements

S Lee, D Lopez-Pintor - Fuel, 2025 - Elsevier
In this work, surrogate fuels for three premium-grade gasoline fuels were formulated and its
autoignition behavior was validated, together with that of an existing surrogate for E10 …
