Induction Time Data

Data from [Craig (1966)], [Petersen et al. (1996)], and [Skinner and Ringrose (1966)] were used to evaluate H₂-O₂-Ar data (high dilution). Data from [Blumenthal et al. (1996)], and [Bhaskaran et al. (1973)] were used to evaluate H₂-air data. Of the [Blumenthal et al. (1996)] data, only ``first kernel'' data was considered appropriate, and DDT times were discarded for the purpose of validation.

Induction distance data in [Bollinger (1964)] and [Bollinger et al. (1961)] are less directly useful. [Cheng and Oppenheim (1984)], [Schott and Kinsey (1958)], and [White and Moore (1965)] have good induction time data but were omitted because they were largely redundant. [Frank and Just (1985)] contains time history data but no tabulated induction times.
