Abstract

THE changes of temperature ΔT (exothermicities) in hydrocarbon–oxygen reactions, determined by the static technique, have been used as parameters in combustion studies by many workers in the past1–5. Continuously, recorded ΔT over a range of temperatures was reported by workers at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratories6, using flow methods. In a previous paper we described our thermal profile technique in which ΔT is measured in a flow system, and showed its application in a study of the combustion of gasoline range hydrocarbons7. We have now used this technique to study the effect of structure on low molecular weight alkanes and alkenes, and the effect of hydrogen halides on the combustion of n-butane.
