The project “Microliter Fuel Characterization and Property Prediction” addresses DOE’s stated interest in enabling small volume (<20 μl), high throughput (>100 tests/device/month) measurements of transportation fuels and blends that are relevant to co-optimized fuels and engines. In this context, the ability to quantify the performance of a fuel in terms of autoignition metrics (e.g. octane number/sensitivity), combustion properties (e.g. flame speed) and physical properties (e.g. volatility and viscosity) is of significant interest. Predictions of fuel performance in a combustion engine require a link to be made between small volume measurements and combustion behavior of a fuel blend at engine relevant conditions.
