Abstract

The delay time of ignition of various C2H4-O2-Ar mixtures behind reflected shock waves were measured at temperatures of 1090–1520 K and a pressure of 0.65 ± 0.05 MPa. A kinetic scheme of the ignition of ethylene based on the known rate constants of the key elementary reactions was developed. The scheme satisfactorily describes our own and published data on the ignition of ethylene in shock waves over wide ranges of temperature (1100–2400 K), pressure (0.006–0.64 MPa) and ethylene (0.1–17.4 vol %) and oxygen (0.6–20.7 vol %) concentrations.
