Abstract
A viable strategy to improve ammonia (NH3) combustion stability is blending ammonia with high-reactivity fuels. Propane (C3H8) is the prevalent component in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), emerging as a compelling choice for co-firing with ammonia in various practical applications. The ignition delay times (IDTs) of stoichiometric NH3/C3H8 mixtures in Ar dilution (90 %) with varying C3H8 fractions (XC3H8) of 0–30 % were conducted at pressures of 1.75 and 10 bar, and temperatures ranging from 1305 to 1890 K in a shock tube. The NH3-C3H8 model was developed based on the NH3 model optimized by Li et al., the C3H8 submodel in the NUIG 1.1 model, and some new cross-reactions were considered in the NH3-C3H8 model. The NH3-C3H8 model was extensively validated against IDTs measured in this work as well as laminar flame speeds (LFSs) and species profiles (SPs) of NH3/C3H8 from the literature. The comparison of the prediction performance between the NH3-C3H8 model and the M-NUIG model was conducted for ignition, flame propagation, and NH3 consumption. The effects of the cross-reactions on IDTs, LFSs, and SPs of NH3/C3H8 were studied in detail by the sensitivity analysis and rate of production (ROP) analysis using the NH3-C3H8 model. The newly added C/N cross-reactions play an important role in the prediction of the IDTs, LFSs, and SPs of NH3/C3H8 combustion.
