Abstract
Systems and methods for determining performance properties of an unknown composition are disclosed. The performance properties can include a Research Octane Number (RON), a Motor Octane Number (MON), and/or a cetane number. The systems and methods include utilizing an optical spectrum of an unknown composition to determine a model of composition, where the model of composition includes a molecular identity and a relative abundance for components therein. The model of composition is then utilized to calculate one or more performance properties. Additionally, the fit quality for the model of composition is determined by performing a partial least squares analysis on specific spectral regions of interest in the optical spectra of the unknown composition.
