Ignition delay times were measured behind reflected shock waves for cyclohexane and methylcyclohexane at pressures of 1.1, 5.0, and 16.0 atm, temperatures from 1075 to 1750 K, and equivalence ratios of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0. Correlations of the ignition delay times were performed at the three equivalence ratios in Arrhenius form. Measured ignition delay times showed fairly good agreements with previous data. Several accepted mechanisms (JetSurF 2.0, Wang et al., Sirjean et al., Orme et al., and Silke et al.) were used to simulate the experimental measurements and conduct flux analyses and sensitivity analyses. Comparisons of the simulations and analyses between the mechanisms give insights into the oxidation of methylcyclohexane and cyclohexane. Methylcyclohexane has an evidently longer ignition delay time than cyclohexane at phi = 0.5, while its ignition delay time becomes comparative to those of cyclohexane at phi = 1.0. Chemical kinetic interpretation is given for this observation.
