  My project contributes to the development of fuel reforming engines, which is aimed at lower NOx emissions and a higher combustion efficiency. Fuel reformation is converting various types of hydrocarbons fuel into syngas, mixtures of hydrogen and carbon monoxide, and fuel reforming engines utilize syngas as fuel for their operation. Fuel reformation in actual engine systems results in not only syngas but other hydrocarbons and the variations in mixture compositions greatly change the reactivity of fuels, which can be a barrier for stable engine operations. The goal of this project is clarifying effects of possible mixture components on syngas mixture reactivity and developing a chemical reaction model which can predict combustion characteristics of given mixture compositions.

  In automotive engines, combustion phenomena, especially ignitions, evolve through low-temperature chemical reactions. Cool flames are representative of low-temperature combustion phenomena and are usually difficult to observe experimentally because they can easily transient into hot flames, which are dominated by high-temperature chemical reactions. The physics of cool flame-hot flame transitions still remains unclear. In this project, stable isolated cool flames were experimentally realized. By using isolated cool flames, the transient phenomena between cool flames and hot flames and autoignition characteristics of cool flames were investigated in detail from the views of both combustion physics and chemistry.
