A numerical analysis based on the second-law thermodynamics was conducted for the n-heptane and iso-octane autoignition processes in an adiabatic constant-volume system with CO2 addition. Detailed chemical mechanisms of n-heptane and iso-octane were used in the autoignition processes simulation at the initial temperatures located in the low-temperature region and the high-temperature region. The dilution, thermal, and chemical effects of the CO2 addition were numerically isolated to evaluate each individual effect on the exergy destruction in different reaction stages of the autoignition processes, namely, the fuel-series reaction stage, the fuel-fragment reaction stage, the H2O2 loop reaction stage, and the H2-O2 reaction stage. It was observed that the exergy loss in the fuel-series reaction stage of iso-octane autoignition was lower than that of n-heptane, but the individual effect of CO2 played the same role in the exergy destruction for both fuels. The dilution effect of CO2 reduced the exergy loss i...
