Abstract
Measurements of the speeds
of reflected shocks in mixtures of nitrous oxide- argon (6:94) were made using
thin film detectors for timing purposes. Initial temperatures behind the
reflected shocks were between 1670 and 1920�K and pressures were in the range
3-4 atm. The results indicate that at lower temperatures the initial
endothermic decomposition caused the shock to decelerate. At higher
temperatures, fast exothermic reactions rapidly accelerated the shock. Measured
shock speeds were thus average values. Consideration must be given, therefore,
to the degree of dilution by inert gas and the positions of timing stations and
windows relative to the end plate. This is illustrated by reference to previous
investigations of the rate constant for the decomposition of nitrous oxide.
