Abstract
Oxidation of n-pentane in two jet-stirred reactor was studied at 1 and 10 atm 500-1100 K and equiv alence ratios of 0.3:1-2:1. A model was proposed which can predict shock tube and rapid compression machine ignition delay times jet-stirred reactor species concentration profiles and laminar burning velocities. There was excellent agreement between experimentally-observed formaldehyde concentrations at 1 atm detected using both GC and cw -CRDS techniques. Model simulations slightly overpredicted 2-pentene concentrations at 10 atm but the overprediction was far more extreme at 1 atmo. However the relative experimentally- observed concentrations of 1- and 2-pentene were somewhat anomalous when compared at the different pressures.
