摘要：

The kinetics of oxidation, ignition, and combustion of Gas-to-Liquid (GtL) Fischer-Tropsch Synthetic kerosene as well as of a selected Gth-surrogate were studied. New experimental results were obtained using (i) a jet-stirred reactor - species profiles (10 bar, constant mean residence time of 1 s, temperature range 550-1150 K, equivalence ratios phi = 0.5, 1, and 2), (ii) a shock tube - ignition delay time (approximate to 16 bar, temperature range 650-1400 K, phi = 0.5 and 1), and (iii) a burner - laminar burning velocity (atmospheric pressure, preheating temperature = 473 K, 1.0 <= phi <= 1.5). The concentrations of the reactants, stable intermediates, and final products were measured as a function of temperature in the jet-stirred reactor (JSR) using probe sampling followed by on-line Fourier Transformed Infra-Red spectrometry, and gas chromatography analyses (on-line and off-line). Ignition delay times behind reflected shock waves were determined by measuring time-dependent CH* emission at 431 nm. Laminar flame speeds were obtained in a bunsen-type burner by applying the cone angle method. Comparison with the corresponding results for Jet A-1 showed comparable combustion properties. The GtL-fuel oxidation was modeled under these conditions using a detailed chemical kinetic reaction mechanism (8217 reactions vs. 2185 species) and a 3-component model fuel mixture composed of n-decane, iso-octane (2,2,4-trimethyl pentane), and n-propylcyclohexane. The model showed good agreement with concentration profiles obtained in a JSR at 10 bar. In the high temperature regime, the model represents well the ignition delay times for the fuel air mixtures investigated; however, the calculated delays are longer than the measurements. It was observed that the ignition behavior of the surrogate fuel is mainly influenced by n-alkanes and not by the addition of iso-alkanes and cyclo-alkanes. The simulated laminar burning velocities were found in excellent agreement with the measurements. No deviation between burning velocity data for the GtL-surrogate and GtL was seen, within the uncertainty range. The presented data on ignition delay times and burning velocities agree with earlier results obtained for petrol-derived jet fuel. The suitability of both the current detailed reaction model and the selected GtL surrogate was demonstrated. Finally, our results support the use of the GtL fuel as an alternative jet fuel.
