Abstract
The nonequilibrium radiation arising from the ignition of a 10 % stoichiometric hydrogen-oxygen mixture doped with combustion inhibitors and diluted with argon behind shock waves was studied. The addition of halogen-containing inhibitors led to increased UV radiation around the 220 and 411 nm wavelengths characteristic of the HO2 radical and H2O2 and H2O molecules, instead of the expected reduction in the super-equilibrium radiation of active radicals in the ignition zone. Therefore, the hypothesis about the inhibition mechanism due to extinguishing by the excited HO2* radical is not confirmed, and the effect of inhibiting additives is due to the binding of H and O atoms.
