Title: Quantitative estimation of the static and dynamic parameters of jet a-air combustion and detonation from the first principles calculations.

Conference ·
OSTI ID:977016

The Jet A surrogate, consisted from 72.7 wt % decane + 9.1 wt % hexane + 18.2 wt % benzene was selected. Detailed mechanism, consisted of 417 elementary reversible reactions and 71 components, for this Jet A surrogate combustion was elaborated. The capability of the 3-component Jet A surrogate to predict the ignition delay times for the Jet A fuel over wide temperature and pressure ranges and to predict the pressure, temperature, and velocity of detonation was demonstrated.
