PREDICTION OF THE COMBUSTION PROPERTIES OF GASOLINE FROM THE ANALYSIS OF THEIR COMPOSITION

Some equations have been statistically obtained for calculating the combustion properties of gasolines from simple analytical data like density and FIA analysis (hydrocarbon composition: saturates, olefins, aromatics) or PONA analysis (hydrocarbon composition: olefins, naphthenes, aromatics). The equations have been obtained by applying multiple correlation analysis to data GC composition and the properties of each hydrocarbon which were obtained from the literature. The heat of combustion, and the Carbon to Hydrogen (C/H) ratio calculated by means of these equations have been experimentally verified by means of normal analytical methods.
