Abstract
The ignition of propane was investigated behind reflected shock waves in the temperature range of 1350-1800 K and the pressure range of 0.75-1.57 bar. The ignition delay time was measured from the increase of pressure and OH emission in the C3H8-O2-Ar system. The relationship between the ignition delay time and the concentrations of propane and oxygen was determined in the form of mass-action expression with an Arrhenius temperature dependence. The numerical calculations were also performed to elucidate the important steps in the reaction scheme of propane ignition using various reaction mechanisms. The ignition delay times calculated from the mechanism of Sung et al.1 were in good agreement with the observed ones.
