Abstract:
With the aim to reduce the global pollution caused by the increasing levels of NOx, CO and CO2 emitted by internal combustion engines, the study of low-temperature chemistry (LTC) of the combustion process has been greatly enhanced. The goal of this thesis work is to evaluate the performances of the time-of-flight Molecular Beam Mass Spectrometry (TOF-MBMS) in the analysis of the oxidation of propane at low temperature with strong interest in the detection of fleeting species to verify the low-temperature oxidation mechanism. To do that we performed two different experiments: propane oxidatio
