Single-Pulse Shock Tube Experimental and Kinetic Modeling Study on Pyrolysis of a Direct Coal Liquefaction-Derived Jet Fuel and Its Blends with the Traditional RP-3 Jet Fuel.

ABSTRACT: A basic understanding of the high-temperature pyrolysis process of jet fuels is not only valuable for the development of combustion kinetic models but also critical to the design of advanced aeroengines. The development and utilization of alternative jet fuels are of crucial importance in both military and civil aviation. A direct coal liquefaction (DCL) derived liquid fuel is an important alternative jet fuel, yet fundamental pyrolysis studies on this category of jet fuels are lacking. In the present work, high-temperature pyrolysis studies on a DCL-derived jet fuel and its blend with the traditional RP-3 jet fuel are carried out by using a single-pulse shock tube (SPST) facility. The SPST experiments are performed at averaged pressures of 5.0 and 10.0 bar in the temperature range around
