The adverse environmental impact of fossil fuel combustion in engines has motivated
research towards using alternative low-carbon fuels. In recent years, there has been an …

Rapid compression machines (RCMs) are widely used to acquire experimental insights into
fuel autoignition and pollutant formation chemistry, especially at conditions relevant to …

The interaction of a plane shock wave in air with concave profiles has been used in the past
to understand the nature of shock wave focusing. The current study examines the complex …

The development of accurate chemical kinetic models capable of predicting the combustion
of methane and dimethyl ether in common combustion environments such as compression …

Measurements on laminar flame speeds and ignition delay times of methane/air mixtures at
elevated pressures and temperatures were carried out in a constant volume bomb and …

This review paper addresses the following question: what is the structure of flamelets within
premixed turbulent combustion and how does this structure affect the turbulent burning …

Ignition delays of lean mixtures of methane–hydrogen with various hydrogen volumetric
contents were experimentally studied in a shock tube together with modeling analysis …

Methane oxidation at high pressures and intermediate temperatures was investigated in a
laminar flow reactor and in a rapid compression machine (RCM). The flow-reactor …

This paper addresses the impact of fuel composition on the operability of lean premixed gas
turbine combustors. This is an issue of current importance due to variability in the …

Rapid compression machine (RCM) and shock-tube facilities have been employed to study
the oxidation of natural gas blends at high pressure and intermediate to high temperatures …
