- Laminar burning velocities for methanol, ethanol, and binary and quaternary mixtures of these with isooctane and n-heptane, have been determined using the heat flux method on a flat flame adiabatic burner. Measurements were done for an equivalence ratio range between 0.7 and 1.5 and for a range of temperatures between 298 K and 358 K at atmospheric pressure. The present study expands the available data on laminar burning velocities of alcohol-hydrocarbon blends and validates simple mixing rules for predicting the laminar burning velocity for a wider range of fuel blends of hydrocarbons with methanol and/or ethanol. It is shown that simple mixing rules that consider the energy fraction of the blend's components are accurate enough to predict the experimentally determined laminar burning velocity of the mixtures.

- Laminar burning velocities have been measured using the heat flux method on a flat flame adiabatic burner. Measurements were done for iso-octane, n-heptane, toluene, a toluene reference fuel (i.e., a mixture of iso-octane, n-heptane and toluene) and a commercial gasoline. The laminar burning velocities of the toluene reference fuel were in correspondence with the laminar burning velocities of the commercial gasoline. Measurements were done for an equivalence ratio from 0.7 to 1.3 and for a range of temperatures between 298 K and 358 K. The temperature dependence of the fuels is shown and the measurements are compared to literature data and simulations using reduced kinetic models. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
