Abstract:
The results of a study of the transient production of CO
and other species in a ceiling layer during the
development of the layer are presented. The aim of this
work is to produce a set of data that can be used as a
check on models for species production, particularly of
carbon monoxide production, in strongly vitiated ceiling
layers under transient conditions.
