NH2 Measurements during the Pyrolysis and Oxidation of Ammonia/Propane Mixtures in a Shock Tube

Abstract Ammonia/propane pyrolysis and oxidation mixtures were studied using NH2 laser spectroscopy to obtain NH2 time histories in a shock tube. An NH3 diagnostic based on a quantum cascade laser was used to verify the initial ammonia concentrations, while a 597.375-nm laser dia...
