2 Background

3 Single Pulse Shock Tube Driver Diaphragm Driven Dump Tank Shock tube sections heated to 1 o C preventing loss of large condensable species Eight pressure transducer ports lie along the sidewall to determine shock velocity One on the end port to determine ignition delay

5 Heating the Shock Tube 12 Temperature Distribution Water present 1 +/- 2 C over last 3 inches of tube Omega Controllers 2 controllers for tube Temperature (C) Distance from end wall (in) 1 atm Calibration Ideal Calibrated T5 (K) Extrapolated Shock Velocity (m/s)

6 GC and GC/MS Two Hewlett-Packard 689 series Gas Chromatographs and a Hewlett-Packard 5973 series Mass Spectrometer Detectors - PDD, TCD, FID Mass Spectrometer

10 Well Characterized Shock Tube for Chemical Kinetic Studies under Non-ideal Conditions Constant T and P approximations: Acceptable with a <15% end-wall pressure rise. Reaction quenching: Stable species measured in a single pulse shock tube are insignificantly affected. Real gas effects on comprehensive kinetics: Kinetic modeling using ideal gas assumption is applicable with shock tube data obtained over a wide temperature range. From W. Tang, K. Brezinsky, Int. J.
