Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

Abstract

One important property in assessing the knock resistance of ethanol-gasoline blends is heat of vaporization (HOV). Both estimation and direct measurement of the HOV have been problematic due to several factors. In this work, two different approaches were taken toward determination of the HOV. One was direct measurement by DSC/TGA. The other was by estimating the HOV by DHA.
