Experimental and kinetic modeling study of combustion of JP-8, its surrogates and reference components in laminar nonpremixed flows
چکیده انگلیسی

Experimental and numerical studies are carried out to construct reliable surrogates that can reproduce aspects of combustion of JP-8 and Jet-A. Surrogate fuels are defined as mixtures of few hydrocarbon compounds with combustion characteristics similar to those of commercial fuels. The combustion characteristics considered here are extinction and autoignition in laminar non premixed flows. The “reference” fuels used as components for the surrogates of jet fuels are n-decane, n-dodecane, methylcyclohexane, toluene, and o-xylene. Three surrogates are constructed by mixing these components in proportions to their chemical types found in jet fuels. Experiments are conducted in the counterflow system. The fuels tested are the components of the surrogates, the surrogates, and the jet fuels. A fuel stream made up of a mixture of fuel vapors and nitrogen is injected into a mixing layer from one duct of a counterflow burner. Air is injected from the other duct into the same mixing layer. The strain rate at extinction is measured as a function of the mass fraction of fuel in the fuel stream. The temperature of the air at autoignition is measured as a function of the strain rate at a fixed value of the mass fraction of fuel in the fuel stream. The measured values of the critical conditions of extinction and autoignition for the surrogates show that they are slightly more reactive than the jet fuels. Numerical calculations are carried out using a semi-detailed chemical-kinetic mechanism. The calculated values of the critical conditions of extinction and autoignition for the reference fuels and for the surrogates are found to agree well with experimental data. Sensitivity analysis is used to highlight key elementary reactions that influence the critical conditions of autoignition of an alkane fuel and an aromatic fuel.
