Ignition delay times of China No.3 aviation kerosene were measured behind reflected shock waves using a heated high-pressure shock tube.Experimental conditions covered a wider temperature range of 820-1500 K,at pressures of 5.5,11 and 22 atm,equivalence ratios of 0.5,1.0 and 1.5,and oxygen concentration of 20%.Adsorption of kerosene on the shock tube wall was taken into account.Ignition delay times were determined from the onset of the excited radical OH emission in conjunction with the pressure profiles.The experimental results of ignition delay time were correlated with the equations:11 0.22 1.09 2 3.2 10 [Keros ene ] [O2] exp(69941 RT) and 7 0.88 0.23 4.72 10 P exp(62092 RT).The current measurements provide the ignition delay behavior of China No.3 aviation kerosene at high pressures and air-like O2 concentration.

In ground tests of hypersonic scramjet, the highenthalpy airstream produced by burning hydrocarbon fuels often contains contaminants of water vapor and carbon dioxide. The contaminants may change the ignition characteristics of fuels between ground tests and real flights. In order to properly assess the influence of the contaminants on ignition characteristics of hydrocarbon fuels, the effect of water vapor and carbon dioxide on the ignition delay times of China RP-3 kerosene was studied behind reflected shock waves in a preheated shock tube. Experiments were conducted over a wider temperature range of 800-1 500 K, at a pressure of 0.3 MPa, equivalence ratios of 0.5 and 1, and oxygen concentration of 20%. Ignition delay times were determined from the onset of the excited radical OH emission together with the pressure profile. Ignition delay times were measured for four cases: (1) clean gas, (2) gas vitiated with 10% and 20% water vapor in mole, (3) gas vitiated with 10% carbon dioxide in mole, and (4) gas vitiated with 10% water vapor and 10% carbon dioxide, 20% water vapor and 10% carbon dioxide in mole. The results show that carbon dioxide produces an inhibiting effect at temperatures below 1 300 K when Ф = 0.5, whereas water vapor appears to accelerate the ignition process below a critical temperature of about 1 000 K when Ф = 0.5. When both water vapor and carbon dioxide exist together, a minor inhibiting effect is observed at Ф = 0.5, while no effect is found at Ф = 1.0. The results are also discussed preliminary by considering both the combustion reaction mechanism and the thermophysics properties of the fuel mixtures. The current measurements demonstrate vitiation effects of water vapor and carbon dioxide on the autoignition characteristics of China RP-3 kerosene at air-like O2 concentration. It is important to account for such effects when data are extrapolated from ground testing to real flight conditions.

利用单脉冲激波管对碳氢燃料JP-10在1150~1300 K条件下的高温热裂解特性进行了实验研究,采用气相色谱法分析热裂解产物并获得了热裂解速率系数.主要裂解产物有乙烯、乙炔、丙烯、丁烯、1,3-丁二烯、环戊二烯、环戊烯、苯、甲苯,以及少量的甲烷、乙烷、二甲苯和甲基环戊烯.将每次激波管实验后所有产物浓度累加, JP-10裂解速率系数由实验测定.为了消除激波运行中非理想性和边界层效应导致反应温度确定的误差,采用对比速率法确定裂解温度,即在反应物中加入少量热解速率已知的内标物,根据内标物在相同的激波管实验条件下的裂解程度确定反应温度.根据内标物裂解量确定的激波管裂解反应温度通常小于采用传统测量激波速度由激波关系计算的反射激波后5区温度.在1200~1300 K之间两种方法得到的温度吻合得较好,差异在20K以内,随着温度升高,两者差异增大.在实验研究的基础上,依据San Diego Mechanism对JP-10高温裂解过程进行了动力学模拟.结果显示:主要裂解产物中乙烯、乙炔和1,3-丁二烯产量随温度变化的实验值与San Diego Mechanism的模拟结果有很好的一致性,但环戊烯产量的实验值比模拟值高很多,预示JP-10裂解中完全开环和部分开环反应都是重要的裂解通道.
