Tiivistelmä
As the world is transitioning away from the traditional hydrocarbon fuels, hydrogen and ammonia have emerged as promising alternatives. However, different fuels regularly have drastically different combustion qualities. Two parameters very frequently used to characterise combustion are ignition delay and laminar flame speed.
This thesis will explore common strategies to determine ignition delay and laminar flame speed, as well as the repercussions the two have for example in compression ignition engines. The manner in which they are influenced by various physical and chemical factors will also be investigated.
Finally, chemical kinetics simulations will be conducted using the open-source library, Cantera, to calculate ignition delays and laminar flame speeds for hydrogen and ammonia across a range of operating conditions.
