Aim of this work is to discuss and verify the ability of a lumped kinetic model of methyl-esters to simulate the oxidation and pyrolysis of mixtures of these components with alcohol fuels. The comparisons between recent experimental data and model predictions further confirm the validity of the kinetic model and the promising perspective of the lumped approach. The results here presented also show the potential benefits and drawbacks of these mixtures, when they are compared to more conventional fuels.

Abstract

Aim of this work is to discuss and verify the ability of a lumped kinetic model of methyl-esters to simulate the oxidation and pyrolysis of mixtures of these components with alcohol fuels. The comparisons between recent experimental data and model predictions further confirm the validity of the kinetic model and the promising perspective of the lumped approach. The results here presented also show the potential benefits and drawbacks of these mixtures, when they are compared to more conventional fuels.
