Surrogate fuel blends are often used in laboratory experiments and in combustion modeling to reproduce important characteristics of real transportation fuels. Fuel surrogates usually consist of a few class-representative hydrocarbons such as normal and branched alkanes, aromatics, and cycloalkanes. The complexity of a particular blend depends on the number of combustion properties (targets) taken into account. Most often, binary [1] and ternary blends were suggested as kerosene surrogates; yet, in some cases, a single species, n-decane [2], was used to make comparison with kerosene combustion characteristics such as burning velocity and, for example, to determine the emission of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, complex 4-6 component surrogates.
