Comparative investigation of homogeneous autoignition of DME/air and EtOH/air mixtures at low initial temperatures (2016)
Journal Article
Tingas, E.-A., Kyritsis, D. C., & Goussis, D. A. (2017). Comparative investigation of homogeneous autoignition of DME/air and EtOH/air mixtures at low initial temperatures. Combustion Theory and Modelling, 21(1), 93-119. https://doi.org/10.1080/13647830.2016.1238513

The dynamics of homogeneous isochoric explosions of dimethylether (DME)/air and ethanol (EtOH)/air mixtures were studied and compared at relatively low initial temperatures (≤ 700 K) using algorithmic tools derived from the methodology of computation...

Algorithmic determination of the mechanism through which H2O-dilution affects autoignition dynamics and NO formation in CH4/air mixtures (2016)
Journal Article
Tingas, E. A., Kyritsis, D. C., & Goussis, D. A. (2016). Algorithmic determination of the mechanism through which H2O-dilution affects autoignition dynamics and NO formation in CH4/air mixtures. Fuel, 183, 90-98. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2016.06.057

The Computational Singular Perturbation (CSP) algorithm is employed in order to determine how H2O-dilution influences ignition delay and chemical paths that generate NO during isochoric homogenous lean CH4/air autoignition. Regarding the ignition del... Read More about Algorithmic determination of the mechanism through which H2O-dilution affects autoignition dynamics and NO formation in CH4/air mixtures.

Unstable modes in bounded slow manifolds (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Manias, D., Tingas, S., & Goussis, D. (2016, June). Unstable modes in bounded slow manifolds. Paper presented at XXXVI Dynamics Days Europe, Corfu, Greece

The reactions contributing to the explosive time scale that characterises the autoignition of a homogeneous stoichiometric CH4/ air mixture are identified, using two different chemical kinetics mechanisms; the well known GRI-3 mechanism (5...
