Using the planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) technique in a counterflow non-premixed flame configuration, the formation of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) for the butane isomers and the butanol isomers was investigated. For these C-4 fuels, the PAHs of various aromatic ring size groups (2, 3, 4, and larger aromatic rings) have been characterized and compared in non-premixed combustion configuration. In particular, the formation and growth of the PAHs of different aromatic ring sizes in these counterflow flames was examined by tracking the PAH-PLIF signals at various detection wavelengths. The fuel structure effects on the PAH formation and growth processes were also analyzed by comparing the PAH growth pathways for these C-4 fuels. Furthermore, PAH-PLIF experiments were conducted, by blending each of the branched-chain isomers with the baseline straight-chain isomer, in order to study the synergistic effects, as well as identify the relative importance of the H-abstraction-C2H2-addition (HACA) mechanism and the propargyl (C-3 H-3) recombination/addition pathways in the PAH formation and growth processes. A chemical kinetic model available in the literature that includes both the fuel oxidation and the PAH chemistry was also used to simulate and compare the PAH species up to A(4) rings. At the incipient stage of the PAH formation, the simulated results exhibited similar behavior to the experimental observations. The PAH formation pathways considered in the chemical kinetic model were further analyzed. In addition to propargyl, the present results demonstrated the important role of acetylene in the PAH formation and growth processes. (C) 2016 The Combustion Institute. Published by Elsevier Inc.
