Abstract
LII signal decreases significantly when furans are added showing a strong effect of furanic fuels in decreasing the amount of soot formed in atmospheric pressure premixed flames. Particularly the reduction increases as the equivalence ratio increases. On the other side, LIF UV and LIF VIS slightly decrease when furans are added. The absence of a significant reduction of the LIF UV signal when furans are added suggests that small particle formation is not effectively inhibited by these additives. This behavior is similar to what found for ethanol and dimethyl ether addition to ethylene premixed flames, showing a similarity in the behavior of these oxygenated fuels.
