Abstract

Total rotational energy transfer rates have been measured at 1330 K for specific rotational levels in the OHA 2 σ +,υ′ = 0 state in collisions with H2O. Rotational levels ranging fromN′ = 0 to 15 were studied. Measurements were performed in the post-flame region of a stoichiometric H2/O2/He flame operating at 25 mbar. Quenching rates following excitation of individual upper rotational states were also measured. The RET and quenching rates both exhibit monotonic decreases with increasing rotational quantum number.
