Continuous 100 Hz planar laser-induced fluorescence applied to the study of combustion processes

In this paper, a 100?Hz planar laser-induced fluorescence system based on the off-shelf commercial laser and self-made intensified camera is presented, which is low cost and maintainable to be applied in practical combustion research. By using this device, 100?Hz continuously planar laser-induces fluorescence laser combustion diagnostics was conducted. To evaluate this device, both laboratorial combustors and a scramjet combustor were studied. In these experiments, the structure of flame and expansion and the oscillation process of combustion can be resolved.     

Simultaneous high speed PIV and CH PLIF using R-branch excitation in the C2Σ+-X2Π (0,0) band

Simultaneous particle image velocimetry (PIV) and planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) utilizing R-branch transitions in the C-X (0,0) band were performed at a 10-kHz repetition-rate in a turbulent premixed flame. The CH lines at 310.690?nm (from the R-branch of the C-X band) used here have greater efficiency than A-X and B-X transitions, which allows for high-framerate imaging with low laser pulse energy. Most importantly, the simultaneous imaging of both CH PLIF and PIV is enabled by the use of a custom edge filter, which blocks scattering at the laser wavelength (below ～311?nm) while efficiently transmitting fluorescence at longer wavelengths. The Hi-Pilot Bunsen burner operated with a turbulent Reynolds number of 7900 was used to demonstrate simultaneous PIV and CH PLIF utilizing this filtered detection scheme. Instances where pockets of products were observed well upstream of the mean flame brush are found to be the result of out-of-plane motion of the flame sheet. Such instances can lead to ambiguous results when interpreting the thickness of reaction layers. However, the temporally resolved nature of the present diagnostics facilitate the identification and proper treatment of such situations. The strategy demonstrated here can yield important information in the study of turbulent flames by providing temporally resolved flame dynamics in terms of flame sheet visualization and velocity fields.     

Particle formation in opposed-flow diffusion flames of ethylene: An experimental and numerical study

An experimental and numerical study on particles inception and growth is performed in opposed-flow diffusion flames of ethylene and air characterized by different sooting tendencies. Spectrally resolved UV-visible laser induced fluorescence, laser induced incandescence and laser light scattering measurements are used to characterize different classes of combustion-generated compounds. A detailed kinetic model accounting for both gas-phase and particle formation is used. Comparison between experimental results and numerical predictions gives a qualitative view of the mechanism of particle formation in opposed-flow flames.Particle inception is the result of both chemical growth and coagulation of aromatic compounds. In the region close to the flame front where the temperature is relatively high and radicals are abundant, the particle inception is due to a chemical growth mechanism by which aromatic molecules add aromatic radicals leading to the formation of biphenyl-like structures. The growth process continues as high-molecular mass aromatics are moved away from the flame zone towards the stagnation plane by the addition of acetylene and other aromatics forming particles of increasing sizes. Graphitization of these particles and thermal annealing lead to the formation of soot particles. At relatively lower temperatures, found across the stagnation plane, particles growth still occurs and it is mainly due to a process of physical coagulation of PAHs.The experimental and numerical results obtained in this work demonstrate and explain the sensibility of inception and growth of particles to radical concentration and temperature in opposed-flow flame configurations.

Detailed investigation of ignition by hot gas jets

Experimental and numerical investigations of the ignition of hydrogen/air mixtures by jets of hot exhaust gases are reported. An experimental realisation of such an ignition process, where a jet of hot exhaust gas impinges through a narrow nozzle into a quiescent hydrogen/air mixture, possibly initiating ignition and combustion, is studied. High-speed laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) image sequences of the hydroxyl radical (OH) and laser Schlieren methods are used to gain information about the spatial and temporal evolution of the ignition process. Recording temporally resolved pressure traces yields information about ambient conditions for the process. Numerical experiments are performed that allow linking these observables to certain characteristic states of the gas mixture. The outcome of numerical modelling and experiments indicates the important influence of the hot jet temperature and speed of mixing between the hot and cold gases on the ignition process. The results show the quenching of the flame inside the nozzle and the subsequent ignition of the mixture by the hot exhaust jet. These detailed examinations of the ignition process improve the knowledge concerning flame transmission out of electrical equipment of the type of protection flameproof enclosure.

Development of improved PLIF CH detection using an Alexandrite laser for single-shot investigation of turbulent and lean flames

We report on the development of planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) for CH imaging with improved detection sensitivity for single-shot investigations of turbulent, lean, premixed flames. A ring-cavity, pulsed Alexandrite laser was frequency-doubled to excite the lines in the R-branch band-head of the B-X (0,0) band and broadband fluorescence from the B-X (0,1), A-X (1,1) and (0,0) bands, overlapping in the spectral range around 431 nm, was collected. The employed Alexandrite laser, which is characterized by its long pulse duration (150 ns), gives a tunable laser beam around 775 nm with a pulse energy for the second harmonic at the CH absorption wavelength of about 70 mJ. Moreover, the laser has the possibility to be operated in narrow bandwidth (100 MHz) or broad bandwidth (8 cm⁻¹). An introductory high resolution excitation scan over the R-branch band-head was performed and, in addition, saturated excitation with the broadband option of the laser was investigated. By simultaneous excitation of several rotational transitions and to bring these transitions close to saturation, high signal-to-noise ratios were reached over a wide range of equivalence ratios. A sharp and thin CH layer was observed in single-shot PLIF images from laminar premixed methane/air flames from Φ = 0.6 to Φ = 1.5. Finally, the impact of the developed CH PLIF technique is demonstrated in a highly turbulent, lean, partially premixed methane/air flame established on a co-axial jet flame burner.
