Carbon dioxide UV laser-induced fluorescence in high-pressure flames
نویسندگان
چکیده
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) of carbon dioxide is investigated with excitation between 215 and 255 nm with spectrally resolved detection in 5–40 bar premixed CH4/O2/Ar and CH4/air flat-flames at fuel/air ratios between 0.8 and 1.9. The LIF signal consists of a broad (200–450 nm) continuum with a faint superimposed structure, and this signal is absent in similar H2/O2/Ar flames. There is strong evidence this signal arises from CO2, as the signal variations with excitation wavelength, equivalence ratio and flame temperature all correlate with CO2 absorption cross-sections. The signal is linear with pressure and laser fluence within the investigated ranges. 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

UV planar laser induced fluorescence imaging of hot carbon dioxide in a high-pressure flame
UV planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) images of hot carbon dioxide (CO2) are obtained in a laminar flame (CH4/air) at high pressure (20 bar) with excitation wavelengths at 239.34 nm and 242.14 nm. Excitation wavelengths are chosen to minimize the contribution of nitric oxide and molecular oxygen LIF signals. Spectrally resolved single point measurements are used for correction of the rema...
متن کاملFluorescence quantum yield of carbon dioxide for quantitative UV laser-induced fluorescence in high-pressure flames
The fluorescence quantum yield for ultraviolet laser-induced fluorescence of CO2 is determined for selected excitation wavelengths in the range 215–250 nm. Wavelength-resolved laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) spectra of CO2, NO, and O2 are measured in the burned gases of a laminar CH4/air flame (φ = 0.9 and 1.1) at 20 bar with additional NO seeded into the flow. The fluorescence spectra are fit...

Planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) images of NO concentration are reported in premixed laminar flames from 1–60 bar exciting the A− X(0, 0) band. The influence of O2 interference and gas composition, the variation with local temperature, and the effect of laser and signal attenuation by UV light absorption are investigated. Despite choosing a NO excitation and detection scheme with minimu...

Nitric oxide laser-induced-fluorescence (NO-LIF) 2-D imaging measurements using a new multi-spectral detection strategy are reported for high-pressure flames (1–60 bar). This work builds on previous research that identified interference LIF from O2 and CO2 in high-pressure flames and optimized the choice of excitation strategies as a function of application conditions. In this study, design rul...
متن کاملStrategies for laser-induced fluorescence detection of nitric oxide in high-pressure flames. III. Comparison of A-X excitation schemes.
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) has proven a reliable technique for nitric oxide (NO) diagnostics in practical combustion systems. However, a wide variety of different excitation and detection strategies are proposed in the literature without giving clear guidelines of which strategies to use for a particular diagnostic situation. We give a brief review of the high-pressure NO LIF diagnostics ...
