Abstract

This study has been focused on the construction of a detailed kinetic mechanism of oxidation and combustion of isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) to describe both high-temperature reactions and the low-temperature multistage process with separated stages of “cool” and “blue” flames and hot explosion. In accordance with the proposed mechanism, isobaric autoignition, compression-induced autoignition, and flame propagation characteristics have been calculated; the calculation results have been compared with the experimental data. Satisfactory qualitative and quantitative agreement of the calculation and experimental results has been obtained.
