Experimental and modeling study of farnesane

Several alternative synthetic fuels are in discussion as a replacement for conventional fuels like Jet A-1 to cope with limited supplies of crude oil as well as their emissions connected with its use such as the greenhouse gas CO2. One of the alternative fuels which have received high attention recently is farnesane (2,6,10-trimethyldodecane), a biofuel produced from sugar using a biotechnological process. In this paper, combustion...
