چکیده
High-puri ty samples of n-heptane and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane have been prepared by synthet ic methods and purified by fractional distillation for use as s tandards in the certification of pr imary reference fuels. One lot of n-heptane was used to prepare s tandard samples for the eomparison of precision heat-capacity calorimeters. T h e details of the syntheses are presented, and the physical properties of these compounds are reported.

Assessing the Molecular Basis of the Fuel Octane Scale: A Detailed Investigation on the Rate Controlling Steps of the Autoignition of Heptane and Isooctane.
N-Heptane and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane (isooctane) are the key species in the modeling of ignition of hydrocarbon-based fuel formulations. Isooctane is knock-resistant whereas n-heptane is a very knock-prone hydrocarbon. It has been suggested that interconversion of their associated alkylperoxy and hydroperoxyalkyl species via hydrogen-transfer isomerization reaction is the key step to understand...
متن کاملStudy of the thermal diffusion behavior of alkane/benzene mixtures by thermal diffusion forced rayleigh scattering experiments and lattice model calculations.
In this work the thermal diffusion behavior of binary mixtures of linear alkanes (heptane, nonane, undecane, tridecane, pentadecane, heptadecane) in benzene has been investigated by thermal diffusion forced Rayleigh scattering (TDFRS) for a range of concentrations and temperatures. The Soret coefficient ST of the alkane was found to be negative for these n-alkane/benzene mixtures indicating tha...

Additionally, one ternary liquid mixture of (Tetrahydrofuran+2-Propanol+2,2,4-trimethylpenta...
متن کاملProducts and mechanism of the reaction of OH radicals with 2,2,4-trimethylpentane in the presence of NO.
Alkanes are important constituents of gasoline fuel and vehicle exhaust, with branched alkanes comprising a significant fraction of the total alkanes observed in urban areas. Products of the gas-phase reactions of OH radicals with 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane-d18 in the presence of NO at 298+/-2 K and atmospheric pressure of air have been investigated using gas chromatograp...
متن کاملPollutant emissions from gasoline combustion. 1. Dependence on fuel structural functionalities.
To study the formation of air pollutants and soot precursors (e.g., acetylene, 1,3-butadiene, benzene, and higher aromatics) from aliphatic and aromatic fractions of gasoline fuels, the Utah Surrogate Mechanisms is extended to include submechanisms of gasoline surrogate compounds using a set of mechanism generation techniques. The mechanism yields very good predictions of species concentrations...
