Abstract

Two- and three- dimensional imaging of species concentration distributions is a powerful diagnostic tool in reacting and nonreacting flows1. Planar laser-induced fluorescence(PLIF) is especially suited for mapping the concentration of radicals and stable species, such as OH, CH, C2, O2 and NO. Recently PLIF was extended to the measurements in two-phase flows, like spray flames, increasing substantially the possibilities of its application in practical combustion systems. Several minor and major species (e.g., N2, CO and O), however, have transitions in the VUV, which are inaccessible using linear excitation. For this reason, two-photon excitation techniques were developed for single-point detection of O3,4 H5 and OH6,7 in flames, as well as for the one dimensional imaging of O8 and CO9.
