Schoenman, "LOX/Propane and LOX/Ethanol Combustion Chamber Heat Transfer",
JP&P 7.4 (July-Aug 1991) has some discussion of it.
The bad news is that it's almost impossible to calculate how much it will
help, or not, because sooting is poorly understood and nobody's got a good
handle on predicting it.
