Mathematically and chemically simplified reaction scheme for n(heptane that simulates autoignitions of the end gases in spark ignition engines has been developed and studied computationally. The five(equation model is described, to predict the essential features of hydrocarbon oxidation. This scheme has been calibrated against autoignition delay times measured in rapid compression machines. The rate constants, activation temperatures, Ta, Arrhenius pre-exponential constants, A, and heats of reaction for stoichiometric nheptane/air has all been optimized. Comparisons between computed and experimental autoignition delay times have validated the present simplified reaction scheme. The influences of heat loss and concentration of chain carrier at the beginning of compression upon autoignition delay times have been computationally investigated.

Mathematically simplified reaction scheme that simulates autoignitions of the end gases in spark ignition engines has been studied computationally. The five equation model is described, to predict the essential features of hydrocarbon oxidation. This scheme has been calibrated against autoignition delay times measured in rapid compression machines. The rate constants, activation temperatures, Ta, Arrhenius preexponential constants, A, and heats of reaction for stoichiometric n-heptane/air, iso-octane/air, and their mixtures have all been optimised. The optimisation has been guided by Morley's correlation of the ratio of chain branching to linear termination rates with octane number. Comparisons between computed and experimental autoignition delay times have validated the Present simplified reaction scheme and the influences of octane number upon autoignition delay times have been computationally investigated. It has been found that both cool flame and high temperature direct reactions can have an effect on autoignition delay times.
