Experiment
Name: NCAR_20170630_nitric oxide/hydrogen peroxide_Hydroxyl radical_No Seed_CSTR_blank_170630
Date: 2017-06-30
Organization
NCAR
Chamber
NCAR 3rd Floor Teflon
Experiment Set
'Intermediate-NO' regime experiments
Goals
Probing the steady state NO and O3 concentration that could be reached by varying the concentrations of reactants H2O2 and NO in the photooxidation experiment
Summary
First, a given amount of H2O2 and NO is continuously injected into the chamber till the steady state is established. Second, the UV lights are on to initiate photochemistry till another steady state is established.Experiment Details

Name: 'Intermediate-NO' regime experiments
Time format and units:
Description:
We performed a series of experiments running at continuous flow steady state mode, focusing on establishing an ‘intermediate NO’ regime characterized by a constant steady-state NO level ranging from tens of ppt to a few ppb in the chamber
