FERMI RESONANCE IN SOLIDS
Author Institution: National Bureau of StandardsThe infrared absorption spectra of and have been observed in both the pure form and in rare gas matrices at low temperatures. The region studied corresponded to the and Fermi doublets of and respectively. The interaction of the vibrations in Fermi resonance in these molecules changes considerably from that found in the gaseous phase. The spectral features observed will be discussed and related to recent theories
VIBRATIONAL SPECTRA OF THE PHTHALONITRILES
Author Institution: National Bureau of StandardsSolid state spectra for samples of 1,2-, 1,3-, and 1,4--dicyanobezenes have been recorded in the 5000--260 region using prism-grating and prism spectromenters. Comparisons will be made with the spectra of other disubstituted benzenes in the long wavelength region. A detailed analysis of the vibrational spectra is being undertaken and some tentative assignments are suggested
LOW-FREQUENCY INFRARED SPECTRA OF BUTADIENE AND SOME DERIVATIVES
Author Institution: Molecular Spectroscopy Section, National Bureau of StandardsThe infrared spectra of 1,3 butadiene and several derivatives (including fluoroprene, isoprene, and chloroprene) have been investigated in the region in an effort to establish the low-frequency skeletal modes. The lowest in-plane fundamental in butadiene itself has been located at ; the analogous fundamental in the derivatives falls between 250 and . The C-C single bond torsional fundamental in fluoroprene is found to be from the microwave spectrum, and probably has a similar frequency in the other compounds. The correlation of the other skeletal bending modes will be discussed. The fundamental of butadiene at shows well-resolved rotational structure which confirms the planar trans conformations of the molecule
INFRARED SPECTRUM OF DIFLUORAMINE
Author Institution: Molecular Spectroscopy Section, National Bureau of StandardsThe infrared spectrum of gaseous difluoramine, , has been investigated over the range . The fundamental frequencies (in ), their assignment and band types are as follows: , type C); 1306, , type B); 972, , type B); , type B); , type A); , type A). the three type-B bands are well resolved into Q branches with a spacing of approximately .The P and R branches of the type A band are also resolved with a spacing of approximately . The values of the rotational constants A and obtained from these infrared results are in agreement with those determined much more precisely from the microwave spectrum. No inversion splitting was detected in the fine-structure of the resolved bands
Experimental study of radiative heat transfer in a translucent fuel sample exposed to different spectral sources
Radiative heat transfer to a solid is a key mechanism in fire dynamics, and in-depth absorption is especially of importance for translucent fuels. The sample-heater interaction for radiative heat transfer is experimentally investigated in this study with two different heaters (electric resistance and tungsten lamp) using clear PolyMethylMethAcrylate (PMMA) samples from two different formulations (Plexiglass and Lucite). First, the significant effects of the heater type and operating temperature on the radiative heat transfer are revealed with broadband measurements of transmittance on samples of different thicknesses. Then, the attenuation coefficient in Beer-Lambert's law has been calculated from detailed spectral measurements over the full wavelength range encountered in real fires. The measurements present large spectral heterogeneity. These experimental results and calculation of in-depth absorption are used to explain the reason behind the apparent variation of the fuel absorbance with the sample thickness observed in past studies. The measurement of the spectral intensity emitted by the heaters verifies that the common assumption of blackbody behavior is correct for the electric resistance, whereas the tungsten lamp does not even behave as a greybody. This investigation proofs the necessity of a multi-band radiation model to calculate accurately the fire radiative heat transfer which affects directly the in-depth temperature profiles and hence the pyrolysis process for translucent fuel
