Popis: | Autoignition characteristics of RP-3 kerosene were investigated using a heated rapid compression machine and a heated shock tube over a wide range of conditions. Ignition delay times (IDTs) for RP-3 kerosene were measured at pressures of 10, 15 and 20 bar over a range of temperatures from 624 to 1437 K and for equivalence ratios from 0.5 to 1.5. A three-component surrogate fuel (49.8% dodecane, 21.6% iso-cetane and 28.6% toluene by mole) was proposed and a kinetic model was developed to describe the combustion chemistry of RP-3. Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) behavior was observed in the autoignition, of which the temperature range varied within 701−884 K depending on operating conditions. IDT correlations in low and high temperature regions were obtained and then the dependences of IDT on pressure, equivalence ratio, oxygen content and dilution ratio were systemically studied. Comparison between the predictions using the new model and the experimental data shows that this model can accurately describe the autoignition characteristics of RP-3. Brute force sensitivity analyses were carried out to identify the key reactions that govern the ignition event. The large experimental data set and kinetic model provided in the current work will provide insights into the understanding of RP-3 ignition. |
