Results were summarized that
illustrate the ef
cacy of the spherical
fl
ame
con
guration to provide combustion properties useful for assessing the performance
of surrogate fuels. Though it will not generally be possible to match all combustion
properties of a combustion con
guration used in the development of a surrogate
fuel, the current capabilities show that complex transportation fuels can bene
t
from including combustion properties obtained from the spherical
fl
ame con
gu-
ration in assessing the performance of surrogate fuels.
Acknowledgments Preparation of this paper was supported in part by the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration grant no. NNX08AI51G with Mr. Michael Hicks as the project monitor.
The author also benefitted from discussions with Dr. Y.C Liu of the University of Michigan-Flint
and Mr. Yuhao Xu of Cornell University. The author is pleased to acknowledge this essential help
in the course of his work on droplet combustion processes.
