Alkenes formed, during the refining of crude oil, by cracking the heavier fractions are present
in transportation fuels in significant amounts, up to as much as 15–20% in gasoline …

Butenes are intermediates ubiquitously formed by decomposition and oxidation of larger
hydrocarbons (eg alkanes) or alcohols present in conventional or reformulated fuels. In this …

Isobutene is an important intermediate in the pyrolysis and oxidation of higher-order
branched alkanes, and it is also a component of commercial gasolines. To better understand …

Conventional transportation fuels used in aviation (jet fuel) or in ground transportation
(gasoline, diesel) contain multitude of hydrocarbon components and are difficult to be …

The laminar burning velocity (LBV) is a fundamental property of a fuel/oxidizer mixture with
high impact on combustion processes in practical engines. Profound knowledge of its …

Light alkenes are common combustion intermediates for a variety of fuels. Therefore,
understanding their oxidation and pyrolysis chemistry is key to building detailed …

Cool flames, being essential features of chemical kinetics of large hydrocarbon fuels, are
closely related to the negative temperature coefficient (NTC) phenomenon and engine …

In the present work, the adiabatic laminar burning velocity of methane diluted with carbon
dioxide, the two main components of biogas, is investigated both experimentally and …

In this study, a series of ignition delay time (IDT) experiments of 1-butene were performed in
a high-pressure shock tube (HPST) and in a rapid compression machine (RCM) under …

Flow reactor pyrolysis and laminar flame propagation are investigated for n-propanol and i-
propanol, which are the smallest alcohol fuels with isomeric structures. Pyrolysis products of …
