Detailed simulations of weak-to-strong ignition of a H₂/O₂/Ar mixture in shock-tubes

The accurate description of chemical-kinetic models is critical for characterizing effects of new fuel compositions on existing propulsion systems and for developing future combustion technologies. Among other facilities, shock tubes remain hereby invaluable in providing detailed information about ignition delay times, extinction limits, and species time-histories for the development and validation of reaction mechanisms
