Soot Precursors from Real Fuels: The Unimolecular Reactions of Fuel Radicals

October 16, 2008
Author(s)
Wing Tsang, Iftikhar A. Awan, William Sean McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion
This paper describes studies aimed at defining in a quantitative fashion the cracking pattern of fuel radicals under combustion conditions. The experimental procedure involves studies using a single pulse shock tube and combining the observations with

Multichannel Decomposition and Isomerization of Octyl Radicals

October 9, 2008
Author(s)
Wing Tsang, William S. McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion
The thermal cracking patterns from the decomposition and isomerization of octyl-1 radicals have been determined from the pyrolysis of n-octyl iodide in single pulse shock tube experiments at temperatures in the 850-1000 K range and pressures near 2 bar

Ring Expansion Reactions in the Thermal Decomposition of t-Butyl-1,3-Cyclopentadiene

November 30, 2006
Author(s)
William S. McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion, Wing Tsang
The thermal decomposition of t-butyl-1,3-cyclopentadiene has been investigated in single pulse shock tube studies at shock pressures of 182 260 kPa and temperatures of 996 1127 K. Isobutene (2-methylpropene), 1,3-cyclopentadiene, and toluene are observed

Multichannel Decomposition of Heptyl Radicals

April 1, 2003
Author(s)
Wing Tsang, Iftikhar A. Awan, Jeffrey A. Manion
This paper is concerned with decomposition of heptyl radicals in high temperature combustion environments. Experimental results on the decomposition of n-heptyl iodide in single pulse shock tube studies will be presented. All the products resulting from

Thermal Decomposition of 2-Bromopropene, and 2-Chloropropene

March 24, 2003
Author(s)
K Roy, Iftikhar A. Awan, Jeffrey A. Manion, Wing Tsang
2-Chloropropene and 2-bromopropene have been decomposed in single pulse shock tube experiments. The only products under all conditions are propyne and allene. The high pressure rate expressions arek(2-BrC 3H 5 => propyne/allene + HBr) =10 14.12 exp(-3283OK

Binary Diffusion Coefficients for Combustion Modeling

November 30, 2002
Author(s)
William S. McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion
Recent studies have demonstrated that combustion models can be as sensitive to the binary diffusion coefficients of the fuel species as to the kinetics of major chemical reactions. We have constructed a reversed-flow chromatographic apparatus for the

Reaction Kinetics of 2-Propanol Dehydration in Supercritical Water

March 1, 2002
Author(s)
V I. Anikeev, A Ermakova, Jeffrey A. Manion, Robert E. Huie
A study of the kinetics and mechanism of chemical reactions in supercritical fluids is considered. An experimental procedure was proposed for examining reversible chemical reactions in supercritical water. The reaction kinetics of 2-propanol dehydration in

Commemorative Issue for Prof. Simon H. Bauer II: Editorial Comment

December 1, 2001
Author(s)
Wing Tsang, Robert E. Huie, Jeffrey A. Manion
The next two issues of the International Journal of Chemical Kinetics are dedicated to Prof. Simon H. Bauer on the occasion of his 90th birthday. These issues contain a number of papers by his students and colleagues who have built on his pioneering

1,2-Pentadiene Decomposition

November 1, 2001
Author(s)
J Herzler, Jeffrey A. Manion, Wing Tsang
1,2-Pentadiene has been decomposed in single pulse shock tube experiments. There appear to be a large number of parallel decomposition and isomerization channels. The following rate expressions for isomerization in the temperature range 1100 K-1250 K and 2
