Experimental and Theoretical Studies of Autoignition and Burning Speed of JP-8 and DF-2

Abstract

The capabilities of the combustion laboratory at Northeastern University have increased tremendously over the past year. The construction of the new experimental apparatus has allowed for much greater productivity. The addition of thick windows for the cylindrical vessel has allowed the lab to undertake testing at higher pressures and temperatures. Follow up the previous reports; we have used our modified burning model to measure laminar burning speed of JP-8, 21% O2 and 79% He at wide range of temperature, pressure and equivalence ratio.
