Kerosene based hydrocarbon fuels are preferred candidates for the source of energy due to its stable properties. Based on the requirement of the combustor and the growing concern over pollutant, kerosene based fuels are modified. The fuel under investigation is a modified form of kerosene with ultra-low sulphur content. The effect of temperature on modified kerosene is studied for viscosity, surface tension, specific heat, density and ignition delay. The time delay for ignition of gas-phase mixtures of modified kerosene/oxygen have been measured using a shock tube facility. The experiments are conducted in the temperature range of 1200–1877 K, pressure range of 4–12 atm and equivalence ratio of Ø = 1.5, 1 and 0.5. The ignition delay time measurements were carried out using piezoelectric pressure transducers, which records the pressure rise due to ignition and simultaneously recording the light emission during the process of ignition using a photodiode. The ignition delay is represented as τ_ign = 0.168841 _× P^−1.49 _× Ø^0.72 _× e^(14310/T)

基于煤油的烃燃料由于其稳定的性能而成为能源的优选候选者。基于燃烧室的需求和对污染物的日益关注，对煤油基燃料进行了修改。研究中的燃料是具有超低硫含量的煤油的改性形式。研究了温度对改性煤油的影响，包括粘度，表面张力，比热，密度和点火延迟。已使用激波管设备测量了改性煤油/氧气的气相混合物着火的时间延迟。实验是在1200-1877 K的温度范围，4-12 atm的压力范围以及Ø= 1.5、1和0.5的当量比下进行的。使用压电压力传感器进行点火延迟时间的测量，它记录由于点火引起的压力上升，并同时记录使用光电二极管在点火过程中的发光。点火延迟表示为τ_{IGN  =}  0.168841  _{×  P} ^-1.49  _×  Ø ^0.72  _{×  È} ^{（14310 / T）}
