Formaldehyde and Hydroxyl Radicals in an HCCI Engine - Calculations and LIF-Measurements
Concentrations of hydroxyl radicals and formaldehyde were calculated using homogeneous (HRM) and stochastic reactor models (SRM), and the result was compared to LIF measurements from an optically accessed iso-octane/n-heptane-fuelled homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine. The comparison was at first conducted from averaged total concentrations/signal strengths over the entire combu
