abstract = {The present work aims is to gain a comprehensive insight
into the chemical kinetics of combustion processes in the
high- and low-temperature range of alternative, CO2-neutral
fuels. In this context, oxymethylene ethers (OMEx:
CH3O-[CH2O]x-CH3) and diethoxymethane (DEM: C2H5O-CH2O-C2H5)
have been identified as promising substitutes or additives
for fossil diesel fuel in the transportation sector due to
their chemical and physical properties. A main focus of the
investigation is the oxidation behavior of dimethoxymethane
(OME1), as well as the influence of the molecular structure
on the combustion kinetics by extension of the CH2O group
within the molecular structure of OME1 or replacing the
methyl group by an ethyl group at the terminals. Consistent
and detailed chemical kinetic reaction mechanisms were
developed in order to gain a fundamental understanding of
the combustion chemistry and for computational modeling of
the combustion process. In order to consider the chemical
processes that occur during ignition delay separately from
the physical processes, fundamental investigations of the
ignition characteristics were carried out in a shock tube
and a rapid compression machine depending on pressure,
temperature, and equivalence ratio under engine-relevant
conditions. A systematic investigation of the ignition
behavior showed that increasing the chain length, changes
the ignition characteristics and increases the reactivity.
Furthermore, it was observed that these promising and highly
reactive fuel candidates did not exhibit a negative
temperature coefficient. Based on numerical investigations
of the combustion chemistry, it was shown that despite these
differences, these fuels have significant similarities in
their complex reaction kinetics. The holistic approach of
modeling and experiments, presented in this work, is
essential for a complete fuel consideration and evaluation
to ultimately ensure safe and reliable as well as
low-emission engine operation.},
