    Notes: We report laser absorption measurements of NH3 decay within the flame front region of rich, atmospheric pressure ammonia flames. These data are combined with earlier OH, NH, and NH2 measurements to obtain new estimates for the oscillator strength of NH2. This value, fi = 6.4 × 10-5 for the PQ1,7 line in the (0,9,0) ← (0,0.0) vibrational band of the A2A1 ← X2B1 transition, suggests ΔH°f(NH) ≅ 87 kcal/mol. The ammonia profiles were also combined with previous data on NO, NH, NH2, and OH to provide an extensive database at fuel equivalence ratios (ø) of 1.28, 1.50, and 1.81 for comparison to our kinetic model predictions. This modeling used a one-dimensional flame code which explicitly accounts for the diffusional component in our flame experiments. Modeling results using a conventional mechanism predicted concentration profiles which deviated markedly from our observations. It was possible to obtain much more satisfactory fits by postulating reactions between various NHi (i = 1, 2) species to form N - N bonds. The N2Hj (j = 1-3) species could then lose H atoms via dissociation to ultimately form N2. Inclusion of these reactions in the mechanism allowed us to predict concentration - distance profiles for five different species at three different equivalence ratios that are in good agreement with experiment. The most important component of this mechanism is the recognition that the NHi + NHi reactions dominate the kinetics in rich flames. A most satisfying aspect of these calculations is that the key rate constants in the NHi + NHi sequence were estimated using simple RRK theory.

    Notes: An ArF excimer laser was used to perturb radical concentrations and a tunable dye laser was used to follow the rise and subsequent decay of OH and CH in rich (φ = 1.6-1.8) atmospheric pressure methane flames. The excimer beam is only slightly focussed to minimize temperature excursions and the influence of diffusion and convection on the decay rates. The observed OH decay is consistent with that predicted using a detailed kinetic mechanism. The observed CH decay is much faster than predicted. The effects of equivalence ratio and height above burner suggests that a major CH decay channel involving an intermediate with higher concentration in rich flames is not properly treated in the mechanism.

    Notes: N2O decay has been monitored via infrared emission for a series of mixtures containing N2O/Ar and N2O/H2/Ar. These mixtures were studied behind reflected shock waves in the temperature interval of 1950-3075°K with total concentrations ranging from 1.2 to 2.5 × 1018 molec/cm3. In all cases the N2O decayed exponentially, and a rate constant kobs was obtained. Runs without added H2 could be described by the following Arrhenius parameters: log A = -9.72 ± 0.08 (in units of cm3/molec · sec) and EA = 203.5 ± 3.6 kJ/mole. Addition of 0.01% and 0.1% H2 was observed to increase the decay rate; the largest increase occurred between 2250 and 2500°K with 0.1% H2, where kobs doubled.Mixtures with no added H2 were analyzed by numerical integration of the following reactions: Quantitative agreement between calculations and observations were obtained with both high and low choices for k2 and k3.The additional reactions were included in the analysis of the mixtures containing H2. Here agreement was obtained only when low values were assigned to k2 and k3. The combinations of k1 ← k3 which agreed with all the data were k1 = 3.25 × 10-10 exp (-215 kJ/RT) and k2 = k3 = 1.91 × 10-11 exp (-105 kJ/RT).

    Notes: The dissociation of N2O/Ar mixtures, with and withoutadded CO, has been studied by monitoring both infrared and ultraviolet emissions behind reflected shock waves. Initial temperatures ranged from 1850 to 2535°K, and the total concentrations were 1.94-2.40 × 1018 molecule/cm3. The infrared emission, corrected if necessary for CO, was observed to decay exponentially, and an apparent rate constant Kapp was obtained. Addition of CO had no effect upon kapp and all the data can be described by the followingArrhenius parameters (in units of cm3/molecule.sec): log A=-9.31±0.12 and EA=219.1±5.2 kJ/mole. Ultraviolet emission data, in runs with added CO, indicate that the atomic oxygen concentration reached a constant value at t 〈 600 μsec for T0 〉 2050°K.Numerical integration of the mechanism allowed comparison of calculated and observed parameters relating to both infrared and ultraviolet data. A consistent fit to these data was obtained with k1=1.3×10-9 exp (-238 kJ/RT) and k2=k3=1.91×10-11 exp(-105 kJ/RT).The concentration of atomic oxygen produced by N2O dissociation is shown to be a sensitive function of k1 through k3. Upper limits are also set for the rate constants of the following reactions:

    Notes: We propose a new high temperature pathway for NO formation that involves the reaction of NNH with oxygen atoms. This reaction forms the HNNO* energized adduct via a rapid combination reaction; HNNO* then rapidly dissociates to NH + NO. The rate constant for O + NNH = NH + NO is calculated via a QRRK chemical activation analysis to be 3.3 × 1014 T-0.23exp(+510/T) cm3 mol-1 s-1. This reaction sequence can be an important or even major route to NO formation under certain combustion conditions. The presence of significant quantities of NNH results from the reaction of H with N2. The H + N2 = NNH reaction is only ca. 6 kcal/mol endothermic with a relatively low barrier. The reverse reaction, NNH dissociation, has been reported in the literature to be enhanced by tunneling. Our analysis of NNH dissociation indicates that tunneling dominates. We report a two-term rate constant for NNH dissociation: 3.0 × 108 + [M] {1.0 × 1013T0.5exp(-1540/T)} s-1. The first term accounts for pressure-independent tunneling from the ground vibrational state, while the second term accounts for collisional activation to higher vibration states from which tunneling can also occur. ([M] is the total concentration in units of mol cm-3.) Use of this dissociation rate constant and microscopic reversibility results in a large rate constant for the H + N2 reaction. As a result, we find that NNH = H + N2 can be partially equilibrated under typical combustion conditions, resulting in NNH concentrations large enough for it to be important in bimolecular reactions. Our analysis of such reactions suggests that the reaction with oxygen atoms is especially important. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Heat capacity data between 298 and 1500K are used to derive a reduced set of apparent vibrational frequencies that can be used for estimation of molecular density of states, ρ(E). Estimates for a number of molecule and radical species, using a reduced set of three frequencies with noninteger degeneracies, are shown to compare favorably to direct count methods, which require specification of the complete frequency set. Use of the reduced set of three frequencies leads to significant improvement in calculations of ρ(E)/Q as compared to similar calculations which use only a single geometric- or arithmetic-mean frequency approximation. Since vapor phase heat capacity data of molecules and radicals can be estimated accurately by a group additivity formalism, this approach provides a method to estimate ρ(E) for use in calculations of pressure effects in unimolecular and chemical activation reaction systems. The accuracy of the ρ(E)/Q distributions obtained from heat capacity data makes this a viable method for those cases where the complete frequency distribution is not known. It is especially valuable for those cases where contributions to ρ(E) from internal rotors or low frequency vibrations such as inversions are not well known. This approach is useful for quantum RRK or inverse Laplace transform calculations of k(E) since no assignment of transition state properties is necessary. The reduced frequency set can also be combined with ΔHf(298) and S(298) to provide a compact data set to describe thermodynamic properties at any temperature. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
