PM emitted from hydrocarbon fuel combustion has bad effects on human health, so it is required to reduce its emission. Most of the studies on PM formation have focused on flames and relatively high temperature regions, however there is a need for knowledge in relatively low temperature regions below apploximately 1300K. In this study, soot and its precursor such as PAH were investigated in the range of 1050K~1350K. A Flow Reactor was used to pyrolyze hydrocarbon fuels under without oxygen and with oxygen, and the mass concentration of PAH that were formed was analyzed by a Gas Chromatography. In addition, numerical calculations were also done using CHEMKIN-Pro.
