T1 - Peroxy-fuels: potential applications in combustion engines T2 - 11th International congress on engine combustion processes - current problems and modern techniques N2 - Present work deals with the potential usage of peroxy-fuels (usually known as organic peroxides) in engine combustion processes. Although as additives (in small quantities < 5% to conventional fuels e.g. diesel, gasoline) peroxy-fuels are well known for many years their commercial applications as a main or primary fuel are not investigated in detail as such except a few. Since they are thermally unstable and energetic their safety demands great care during processing which restricts their commercial exploitation. However, once the issues with safety are resolved they can be much more advantageously employed than conventional fuels. Some of these advantages are: significant amount of fuel saving, reduction in amount of inducted air or even in the complete absence of air i.e. anaerobically, smaller volume of combustion (chamber), oxygenated fuel quality and low emissions. In this study we introduce an idea to develop the components of an engine operating solely on peroxy-fuels. The engine concept is based on single and multiple injectors in a cylinder with special material coating to ensure a temperature controlled processing.
