In order to explore the pyrolysis characteristics of oxygenated fuels under high temperature and low pressure conditions
ethanol and dimethyl ether(DME)were used as the research objects in shock tubes to conduct the pyrolysis experiment. The concentrations of four pyrolysis products of methane
acetylene
ethylene and formaldehyde in ethanol and dimethyl ether pyrolysis at 1 200-1 700 K and 0.20-0.25 MPa were tested by gas chromatograph. Also
direct relationship graph method was used to establish a detailed
combined and simplified model(DME-Ethanol model)
then ROP analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed. The results show that dimethyl ether and ethanol are mainly consumed by the H-abstraction reactions initiated by H and CH
3
etc.; the proport
ion of dimethyl ether consumed by unimolecular dissociation reactions is larger than that of ethanol due to its unique symmetrical structure. More methyl groups increase the reactivity of dimethyl ether pyrolysis. The concentration prediction errors of the DME-Ethanol model for the pyrolysis products are within 10%.
