n-Dodecane(Cas 112-40-3) Usage

General Description

n-Dodecane is a promising surrogate fuel for diesel engine study because its physicochemical properties are similar to those of the practical diesel fuels.
Properities n-dodecane is miscible with ethyl alcohol, ethyl ether, acetone, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride, but it is immiscible with water. It is also hygroscopic and incompatible with strong oxidizing agents.
Uses Solvent: Used in organic chemistry as a solvent 
Distillation chaser: Used as a distillation chaser

An experimental study of n-dodecane and the development of an improved kinetic model

This work presents new fundamental combustion experimental datasets and propose an improved kinetic model for n-dodecane, a widely used surrogate component for jet fuels and diesel. The autoignition of n-dodecane, which was seldom investigated at low temperatures using RCM previously, was studied over low-to-high temperature ranges by combining a heated RCM and ST in the present study. 

An experimental and kinetic modeling study of n-dodecane pyrolysis and oxidation

The current study investigates n-dodecane (n-C12H26) pyrolysis and oxidation kinetics in the temperature regime of 1000–1300 K in the Stanford Variable Pressure Flow Reactor facility. The work extended the experimental database of n-dodecane oxidation over this critical but somewhat neglected temperature region of n-alkane combustion.

Development and validation of an n-dodecane skeletal mechanism for spray combustion applications

Zhaoyu Luo,Sibendu Som,S. Mani Sarathy,Max Plomer,William J. Pitz,Douglas E. Longman &Tianfeng Lu

, Combustion Theory and Modelling, Volume 18, 2014 - Issue 2

These simulations were compared with the recent experiments with n-dodecane as a surrogate for diesel fuels. It can be seen that combustion characteristics such as ignition delay and flame lift-off length were well captured by the skeletal mechanism, particularly under conditions with high ambient temperatures. Simulations also captured the transient flame development phenomenon fairly well.
