Calculated potential surfaces for the reactions: O+N2→NO+N and N+O2→NO+O

Abstract: Complete active space SCF/contracted CI (CASSCF/CCI) calculations, using large Gaussian basis sets, are presented for selected portions of the potential surfaces for the reactions in the Zeldovich mechanism for the conversion of N2 to NO. The N+O2 reaction is exoergic by 32 kcal/mol and is computed to have an early barrier of 10.2 kcal/mol for the 2A′ surface and 18.0 kcal/mol for the 4A′ surface. The O+N2 reaction is endoergic by 75 kcal/mol. The 3A″ surface is calculated to have a late barrier of 0.5 kcal/mo… Show more

“…Recently, an extensive quasiclassical trajectory ͑QCT͒ study of this reaction was completed by the authors, 12-14 based on accurate ab initio potential energy surfaces. 15,16 This study is used to generate a large database of reaction rate constants and energy removal and disposal rates at various nonequilibrium flow conditions. In this paper we use this database to construct models that not only predict the rate of reaction ͑1͒ as a function of T t , T r , and T v , but also give the internal energy of NO molecules as they are formed in the flow.…”
