Abstract : We analyzed the vapor-phase distribution and behavior of each component in multi-component fuel (MCF). Evaporation characteristic of MCF was researched by laser-induced fluorescent (LIF) method. A pulsed Nd-YAG laser was used as incident light, and an experiment was performed in a constant-volume vessel so that optical measurement could be possible. MCF was injected through electronically controlled common rail injector into the vessel. I-octane (C8H18), n-dodecane (C12H26) and n-hexadecane (C16H34) were selected to be low boiling point (LO-B.P.), mid boiling point (MI-B.P.) and high boiling point (HI-B.P.) components, respectively, and Fuel A, Fuel B and Fuel C, made by compounding those components at different mass fractions, were used as MCF. Experimentation was performed under the conditions that injection pressures were 42MPa, 72MPa and 112MPa, respectively, ambient gas density was 15kg/m3 and ambient gas temperature was 700K. The spatial vapor-phase distribution, dispersion process of mixture, and vaporphase homogeneity were researched. It was ascertained that the vapor-phase of MCF showed stratified distribution and the dispersion of mixture was improved in proportion to the mass fraction of the LO-B.P. component.
