Ignition Delay Times of Kerosene (Jet-A)/Air Mixtures
Ignition of Jet-A/air mixtures was studied behind reflected shock waves.
Heating of shock tube at temperature of 150 C was used to prepare a homogeneous
fuel mixture. Ignition delay times were measured from OH emission at 309 nm and
from absorption of He-Ne laser radiation at 3.3922 micrometers. The conditions
behind shock waves were calculated by one-dimensional shock wave theory from
initial conditions T1, P1, mixture composition and incident shock wave
velocity. The ignition delay times were obtained at two fixed pressures 10, 20
atm for lean, stoichiometric and rich mixtures (ER=0.5, 1, 2) at an overall
temperature range of 1040-1380 K.Comment: V.P. Zhukov, V.A. Sechenov, and A.Yu. Starikovskii, Ignition Delay
