Auto-ignition and deflagration characteristics of ethanol-gasoline/air at high temperature

The ignition delay period and deflagration characteristics of ethanol-gasoline/air mixture under the conditions of high temperature and low pressure were studied by using reflected shock wave in atomizing shock tube. The ignition delay period, combustion pressure and self-illumination intensity of the mixture were measured at a temperature range of 1100–1800 K and a pressure range of 0.1–0.65 MPa with the equivalence ratios of 0.1–2.5.
