Modelling of gasoline fuel droplet heating and evaporation processes is investigated using several approximations of this fuel. These are quasi-components used in the quasi-discrete model and the approximations of these quasi-components (Surrogate I (molar fractions: 83.0%n-C6H14+ 15.6%n-C10H22+ 1.4%n-C14H30) and Surrogate II (molar fractions: 83.0%n-C7H16+ 15.6%n-C11H24+ 1.4%n-C15H32)). Also, we have used Surrogate A (molar fractions: 56%n-C7H16+ 28%iso-C8H18+ 17% C7H8) and Surrogate B (molar fractions: 63%n-C7H16+ 20%iso-C8H18+ 17% C7H8), originally introduced based on the closeness of the ignition delay of surrogates to that of gasoline fuel. The predictions of droplet radii and temperatures based on three quasi-components and their approximations (Surrogates I and II) are shown to be much more accurate than the predictions using Surrogates A and B.
