Ignition delay times and methane species time-histories were measured for methane/O2 mixtures in a high CO2 diluted environment using shock tube and laser absorption spectroscopy. The experiments were performed between 1300 K and 2000 K at pressures between 1 and 31 atm. The experimental mixtures were conducted at an equivalence ratio of 1 with CH4 mole fractions ranging from 3.5%–5% and up to 85% CO2 with a bath of argon gas as necessary. The ignition delay times and methane time histories were measured using pressure, emission, and laser diagnostics. Predictive ability of two literature kinetic mechanisms (GRI 3.0 and ARAMCO Mech 1.3) was tested against current data. In general, both mechanisms performed reasonably well against ignition delay time data. The methane time-histories showed good agreement with the mechanisms for most of the conditions measured. A correlation for ignition delay time was created taking into the different parameters showing that the ignition activation energy for the fuel to be 49.64 kcal/mol. Through a sensitivity analysis, CO2 is shown to slow the overall reaction rate and increase the ignition delay time. To the best of our knowledge, we present the first shock tube data during ignition of methane under these conditions. Current data provides crucial validation data needed for development of future methane/CO2 kinetic mechanisms.

AbstractBoron ignition delay times for 24 μm diameter particles have been measured behind the reflected shock at a shock tube endwall in reduced oxygen atmospheres and in a combustion bomb at higher pressures in the products of a hydrogen/oxygen/nitrogen reaction. The shock tube study independently varies temperature (1400 – 3200 K), pressure (8.5, 34 atm), and ignition-enhancer additives (water vapor, fluorine compounds). A combustion chamber is used at a peak pressure of 157 atm and temperature in excess of 2800 K to study ignition delays at higher pressures than are possible in the shock tube.
