An Experimental and Detailed Chemical Kinetic Investigation of the Addition of C2 Oxygenated Species in Rich Ethylene Premixed Flames

Current needs for reduced emissions and improved efficiency have motivated the study of the combustion of novel, oxygenated fuels. The scope of the present work is to experimentally and numerically analyse the effect of the addition of three C2 oxygenated species in rich ethylene flames and to quantify their propensity to inhibit pollutant formation. Acetaldehyde, ethanol and acetic acid are investigated, as representatives of three fuel...
