An automated target species selection method for dynamic adaptive chemistry simulations
Nicholas Curtis, Kyle Niemeyer, Chih-Jen Sung
The relative importance index (RII) method for determining appropriate target species for dynamic adaptive chemistry (DAC) simulations using the DRGEP method is developed. The accu…
Comparative Autoignition Trends in the Butanol Isomers at Elevated Pressure
Bryan W. Weber, Chih-Jen Sung
Autoignition experiments of stoichiometric mixtures of s-, t-, and i-butanol in air have been performed using a heated rapid compression machine (RCM). At compressed pressures of 1…
Reduced chemistry for butanol isomers at engine-relevant conditions
Xin Hui, Kyle E. Niemeyer, Kyle B. Brady +1
Butanol has received significant research attention as a second-generation biofuel in the past few years. In the present study, skeletal mechanisms for four butanol isomers were ge…
UConnRCMPy: Python-based data analysis for rapid compression machines
Bryan W. Weber, Chih-Jen Sung
The ignition delay of a fuel/air mixture is an important quantity in designing combustion devices, and these data are also used to validate chemical kinetic models for combustion.…
Comparative Investigation of the High Pressure Autoignition of the Butanol Isomers
Bryan W. Weber, Chih-Jen Sung
Investigation of the autoignition delay of the butanol isomers has been performed at elevated pressures of 15 bar and 30 bar and low to intermediate temperatures of 680-860 K. The…
Autoignition of Butanol Isomers at Low to Intermediate Temperature and Elevated Pressure
Bryan W. Weber, Kamal Kumar, Chih-Jen Sung
Autoignition delay experiments for the isomers of butanol, including n-, sec-, tert-, and iso-butanol, have been performed using a heated rapid compression machine. For a compresse…
