Abstract

The smog-chamber facility of the University of North Carolina (UNC) was used to provide experimental data for the EPA and atmospheric model developers for testing and validating kinetic mechanisms of photochemical smog formation. In the study, 71 dual experiments were performed using NOx and various hydrocarbons and hydrocarbon mixtures. Experiments were also conducted to better understand and characterize (1) the chamber when operated dynamically to simulate continuous emissions and dilution, and (2) the solar radiation inside the smog chamber. The chamber experiments described in the report were added to the existing UNC data base for model testing, bringing the total number of dual experiments in the data base to 417. The data base is available on an ANSI-formatted magnetic tape.
