The pyrolysis of cyclopentanone, a promising biofuel candidate identified by the Department of Energy’s Co-Optima program, is investigated in this work. Time resolved measurements of carbon monoxide, ethylene, and cyclopentanone are provided to gain a detailed understanding of the unimolecular decomposition pathway of the fuel. Experiments were conducted between 1156-1312 K near 9 atm with 0.1% fuel loading balanced in argon. A strategy to report species concentration with interference is presented and the measurements obtained are crucial validation targets for the development of detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms used to predict fuel chemistry.
