The butanol-diesel blended fuel possesses broad application prospects in energy industry owing to its excellent properties; thus, studying on flame spread over the blended fuel is of great significance for both scientific meanings and practical guidelines. Several fundamental parameters of flame spread, including the flame spread rate, frequency of flame oscillation, temperature distribution, and...
The pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass has received extensive attention due to its potential as an alternative and renewable energy source. The chemical reaction kinetic parameters, obtained by micro-scale thermogravimetric experiments and optimized by the Shuffled Complex Evolution method, are one of the key factors to represent the pyrolysis process. The bench-scale Fire Propagation Apparatus...
The effect of azeotropic blended fuel on combustion characteristics was studied experimentally in a ceiling vented compartment. A variety of blended liquid fuels with different mixing ratios was employed to explore the thermal performances by the measurement of fuel mass loss rates, fuel and gas temperatures, etc. Results indicate that azeotropism has a significant effect during the combustion process,...
Flame spread over a petroleum-based diesel fuel was experimentally examined at two different altitude conditions (Lhasa plateau 3658m, and Hefei Plain, 50m). Based on the test results, the flame appearance, velocity of flame spread and temperature profile near oil surface were comprehensively characterized. Two types of flame are observed during the flame spread: a blue precursor flame and a yellow...
