Over the last two decades, our understanding of soot formation has evolved from an empirical, phenomenological description to an age of quantitative modeling for at least small …
A detailed model of soot formation is proposed, which consists of a gas-phase kinetic model for the pyrolysis and oxidation of selected hydrocarbon fuels and a kinetic mechanism of …
This work aims to develop a reaction mechanism for gasoline surrogate fuels (n-heptane, iso- octane and toluene) with an emphasis on the formation of large polycyclic aromatic …

The morphology and nanostructure of soot particles as a function of fuel type in a laminar diffusion flame were studied. The fuels considered were heptane, toluene, the volumetric …
World demand for energy, in general, and for transportation, in particular, is increasing rapidly. The internal combustion engines, fuelled mostly by petroleum-derived liquid fuels …

Reliable simulations of reacting flow systems require a well-characterized, detailed chemical model as a foundation. Accuracy of such a model can be assured, in principle, by systematic …
The clustering of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules is investigated in the context of soot particle inception and growth using an isotropic potential developed from the …
