A novel pulsed method of operating a stirred-flow reactor is described and the appropriate kinetic equations are derived. The technique enables gas kinetic data for pyrolysis reactions to be obtained rapidly and economically; it has been tested by measuring the rate of thermal isomerisation of cyclopropane.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
