Due to the hierarchical nature of high-temperature hydrocarbon oxidation, modeling the combustion chemistry of higher hydrocarbon fuels typically requires a fue

Real fuels usually contain hundreds to thousands of hydrocarbon components. Over a wide range of combustion conditions, large hydrocarbon molecules undergo ther

The goal of this research program was to develop a comprehensive, predictive, and detailed kinetic model of hydrocarbon combustion for aero propulsion simulatio

Studies were conducted in several relevant areas, including (1) validation of the chemistry and transport models against the extinction of ultra-lean premixed h
