✦ Synopsis
Three chemically different hydrocarbons (toluene, n-heptane, and propanol-1) were combusted and investigated in reflected shock waves. The study addresses the formation of soot and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and the factors which influence the production of these compounds during liquid spray combustion have also been investigated at temperatures between 1000 and 3000 K and pressures of 2-25 bar. The results indicate soot and PAH formation depends largely on the chemical properties of fuel, temperature, and oxygen concentration. However, the pressure dependence was found to be minimal in the pressure range less than 25 bar. The results are instrumental in adding to our understanding of the soot and PAH formation chemistry.
