摘要：A new chemical mechanism with 12 species and 26 reactions for formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was developed and integrated into a skeletal mechanism for oxidation of primary reference fuel (PRF). Coupled with the new skeletal PRF-PAH mechanism, an improved phenomenological soot model was further constructed based on our previous work. By validating against the experimental data on the related PAHs in four premixed laminar flames of n-heptane/iso-octane and three counterflow diffusion flames of n-heptane, it is indicated that the major species concentrations were well reproduced by the model. Moreover, validations of the new soot model show that the soot yield, particle diameter, and number density were predicted with reasonable agreement with the experimental data in a rich n-heptane shock tube over wide temperature and pressure ranges. Compared with the soot model with acetylene as precursor species, the new model agrees better with the measurement, which proves the necessity of including PAHs chemistry for soot modeling. Finally, the model was applied to simulate the soot distributions in n-heptane sprays in the Sandia constant-volume combustion chamber under high EGR conditions, as well as the evolutions of PAH and soot concentrations in an engine fueled with n-heptane. It is also found that the experimental data was reasonably well reproduced by the model.
