In this study, numerical simulations for an n-heptane fueled Chaochai 6102bzl direct injection diesel engine are performed in order to predict the chemical details of the combustion process and resulting polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (such as benzene, naphthalene, phenanthrene and pyrene) formation. The diesel geometry and reduced kinetic mechanism of n-heptane oxidation, which includes only 86 reactions and 57 species, have been developed and incorporated into the computational fluid dynamics code, FLUENT. The diesel unsteady laminar flamelet model, turbulence model and spray model have been employed in the numerical simulations. The numerical simulation results showed that the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were firstly increased with the increase of diesel crank angel and then decreased, which was mostly located at the bottom of diesel combustion chamber wall.

We show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chromophores that are linked between two five-membered rings can access planarized structures with reduced optical gaps and redox potentials. Two aceanthrylene chromophores were connected into dimer model systems with the chromophores either projected outward (2,2’-biaceanthrylene) or inward (1,1’-biaceanthrylene) and the optical and electronic properties were compared. Only the planar 2,2’-biaceanthrylene system showed significant reductions of the optical gaps (1 eV) and redox potentials in relation to the aceanthrylene monomer.<br>
