Combustion of hydrocarbon fuels and liquid alternative fuels
2020Experimental investigations are carried out to elucidate the influences of the amount of fuel and oxygen on critical conditions of autoignition and extinction with the gaseous counterflow burner for propane and the liquid pool counterflow burner for n-heptane, isobutanol, n-heptane/isobutanol-mix, 1-propanol, ethanol, n-decane, ndecane/isobutanol-mix ...

Combustion Promoters for Hydrocarbon Fuels
Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils, 2016We present a review of combustion promoters, including the major classes of organic compounds that can be used in internal combustion engines. We also consider compounds developed that have high promoter action. We give a comparative evaluation of the considered promoters based on analysis of the mechanism of action for the promoters.

Deposit Formation in Hydrocarbon Fuels
Journal of Engineering for Power, 1982A high-pressure fuel coking test apparatus was designed and developed and was used to evaluate thermal decomposition (coking) limits and carbon deposition rates in heated copper tubes for two hydrocarbon fuels, RP-1 and commercial-grade propane. Tests were also conducted using JP-7 and chemically-pure propane as being representative of more refined ...

Deflagration of Hydrocarbon Aerosol Fuels
Combustion Science and Technology, 1997Aerosols of hydrocarbon/air may be formed on accidental release of product in the chemical and process industries and pose a fire and explosion hazard. Some very large-scale accidents involving such systems have been reported. This paper reports a series of novel scouting experiments in a purpose-built medium-scale facility, designed to throw light on ...

Fuel and Hydrocarbon Vaporization
1973Abstract : A new semi-empirical expression has been developed which predicts the evaporation rates of pure liquid hydrocarbons under a wide range of conditions. A code has been formulated which, using the above results, calculates the evaporation rates of binary mixtures of hydrocarbons.

SATURATED HYDROCARBON FUEL CELL PROGRAM
1963Abstract : The objective of Task IV is the study of hydrocarbon fuel cells with non-acid electrolytes. New cell hardware was designed and constructed, based on previous experience with organic fuels. High precision material balance equipment was constructed, and calibrations for the initial phases of the work were completed.

The Combustion of Hydrocarbon Fuels
1994It is difficult to overestimate the importance of the part played by combustion in the development of mankind. The key to this progress was the discovery of how to manage the combustion process; in other words, the ability to initiate combustion when required and to control and apply the resulting fire.

THERMAL STABILITY OF HYDROCARBON FUELS
1961Abstract : Research was conducted to: (1) develop a small scale jet fuel thermal stability tester capable of operation at fuel temperatures from 300 to 650 F with samples 1 qt or less in size, and (2) study the effects of storage on thermal stability performance of JP-6 grade jet fuels and establish causes (in terms of environmental factors and fuel ...
