This study presents new ignition delay data measured in a rapid compression machine over a wide range temperature, pressure and fuel/air ratio. This data is an extension of that measured previously (D. Darcy, C.J. Tobin, K. Yasunaga, J.M. Simmie, J. Wiirmel, T. Niass, O. Mathieu, S.S. Ahmed, C.K. Westbrook, H.J. Curran, Combust. Flame, 159 (2012) 2219-2232.) for the oxidation of n-propylbenzene in a high-pressure shock tube. The data was obtained for equivalence ratios of 0.29, 0.48, 0.96, and 1.92, at compressed gas pressures of 10, 30 and 50 atm, and over the temperature range of 650-1000 K. Experimental data was also obtained at 50 atm for all equivalence ratios in our new heated high-pressure shock tube and this is also presented here. Comparisons between the data obtained in both the rapid compression machine and the shock tube facilities showed excellent agreement. A previously published chemical kinetic mechanism has been improved and a low-temperature rea...
