Laminar burning speed measurement of premixed n-decane/air mixtures using spherically expanding flames at high temperatures and pressures
Normal-decane (n-C10H22) is regarded as a major component of possible surrogates for jet fuels and diesel fuels. The structure of spherically expanding premixed n-decane/air flames has been studied at high temperatures and pressures. The laminar burning speeds of n-decane/air mixtures have been measured for the temperatures of 350-610 K and pressures of 0.5-8 atm. The experiments were performed in lean conditions (0.7 <= phi <= 1). Laminar burning speed was measured using a thermodynamic model based on the pressure rise during the flame propagation in constant volume vessels. A cylindrical vessel equipped with a high speed CMOS camera was employed to investigate the flame structure and a spherical vessel was used for the burning speed measurements. The results are in good agreement with other experimental data available in the published literature. (C) 2011 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
