Sarofim, Adel F.; Pugmire, Ronald J. | 13C NMR analysis of soot produced from model compounds and a coal | Soot samples, including the associated organics, produced from an Illinois No. 6 coal (five samples) and two model compounds, biphenyl (three samples) and pyrene (two samples), have been studied by 13C NMR methods. The coal soot data served as a guide to selection of the temperature range that would... | 13C NMR; Biphenyl; Aromatic cluster size | 2001 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Journey from n-heptane to liquid transportation fuels. 1. The role of the allylic radicals and its related species in aromatic precursor chemistry | The Utah normal heptane mechanism compiled from submechanisms in the literature was extended into a detailed normal decane combustion mechanism, which is a subset of the Utah surrogate mechanisms. Few species have greater impact on the concentrations of other species than the allyl radical CH2CHCH2.... | Utah Surrogate Mechanisms; Heptane mechanism; Decane combustion mechanism; Allyl radical; Aromatic precursors | 2008 |

Sarofim, Adel F.; Truong, Thanh | Kinetics of hydrogen abstraction reactions from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by H atoms | An application of the Reaction Class Transition State Theory/Linear Energy Relationship (RC-TST/LER) is presented for the evaluation of the thermal rate constants of hydrogen abstraction reactions by H atoms from Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH). Two classes of reactions have been considered, ... | Reaction Class Transition State Theory; Linear Energy Relationship; Hydrogen abstraction reactions | 2004 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Mechanism reduction and generation using analysis of major fuel consumption pathways for n-heptane in premixed and diffusion flames | Reaction pathway analyses were conducted for three mechanisms (designated as the Pitsch, Utah, and Lawrence Livermore National Lab) for a normal heptane premixed flame (? = 1.9) and a normal heptane opposed diffusion flame, in order to identify the relative importance of the major fuel consumption p... | Pitsch mechanism; Utah mechanism; Lawrence Livermore National Lab mechanism; Mechanism reduction; Heptane premixed flame | 2007 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Olefin chemistry in a premixed n-heptane flame | Three different n-heptane mechanisms were used to simulate a fuel-rich normal heptane premixed flame in order to identify major reaction pathways for olefin formation and consumption and areas of uncertainties of these reactions. Olefins are formed mainly via ?-scission and hydrogen abstraction, and... | Heptane mechanism; N-heptane; Olefin formation; Olefin consumption; Alkyl radicals | 2007 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Pollutant emissions from gasoline combustion. 1. Dependence on fuel structural functionalities | To study the formation of air pollutants and soot precursors (e.g., acetylene, 1,3-butadiene, benzene, and higher aromatics) from aliphatic and aromatic fractions of gasoline fuels, the Utah Surrogate Mechanisms is extended to include submechanisms of gasoline surrogate compounds using a set of mech... | Pollutant emissions; Soot precursors; Gasoline surrogate compounds; Utah Surrogate Mechanisms | 2008 |
