Stochastic Simulation of Soot Formation Evolution in Counterflow Diffusion Flames
Soot generally refers to carbonaceous particles formed during incomplete combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. A typical simulation of soot formation and evolution contains two parts: gas chemical kinetics, which models the chemical reaction from hydrocarbon ...

Simulated contrail-processed aviation soot aerosols are poor ice-nucleating particles at cirrus temperatures [PDF]
Aviation soot surrogates processed in contrails are believed to become potent ice nuclei at cirrus temperatures. This is not verified for real aviation soot, which can have vastly different physico-chemical properties.

Immersion Freezing Ability of Freshly Emitted Soot with Various Physico-Chemical Characteristics
The immersion freezing ability of soot particles has in previous studies been reported in the range of low/insignificant to very high. The aims of this study were to: (i) perform detailed physico-chemical characterisation of freshly produced soot ...
