In situ measurement on nonuniform velocity distributionin external detonation exhaust flow by analysis ofspectrum features using TDLAS

Instantaneous and precise velocity sensing is a critical part of research on detonation mechanism and flow evolution.This paper presents a novel multi-projection tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy solution,to provide a real-time and reliable measurement of velocity distribution in detonation exhaust flow with obvious nonuniformity.Relations are established between overlapped spectrums along probing beams and Gauss velocity distribution phantom according to the frequency shifts and tiny variations in components of light-of-sight absorbance profiles at low frequencies analyzed by the fast Fourier transform.With simulated optical measurement using H2O feature at 7185.6 cm-1 carried out on a phantom generated using a simulation of two-phase detonation by a two-fluid model,this method demonstrates a satisfying performance on recovery of velocity distribution profiles in supersonic flow even with a noise equivalent absorbance up to 2×10^-3.This method is applied to the analysis of rapidly decreasing velocity during a complete working cycle in the external flow field of an air-gasoline detonation tube operating at 25 Hz,and results show the velocity in the core flow field would be much larger than the arithmetic average from traditional tunable diode laser doppler velocimetry.This proposed velocity distribution sensor would reconstruct nonuniform velocity distribution of high-speed flow in low cost and simple operations,which broadens the possibility for applications in research on the formation and propagation of external flow filed of detonation tube.     

Velocity vector measurement based on correlation process between low coherence interference outputs

Velocity vector measurement by using fiber-optic low coherence interferometers is proposed and demonstrated. The interference outputs between the reference and backscattered light from the probing points in the flow are correlation processed. The probing points can be specified and are set on the x-, y-, and z-axis in the flow by using the fiber-optic low coherence interferometers. The direction (angles from each axis) and absolute value of the flow velocity can be measured from peak positions of correlations.

Whole field spatial frequency analysis of double-or multiple-exposed PIV images

Speckle Velocimetry or high-image density PIV gives a velocity vector map of a twodimensional flow field by point-by-point spatial frequency analysis of local pattern at an interrogation spot in a double- or a multiple-exposed image of laser speckle or pseudo-speckle pattern generated by pulsed laser-light-sheet illuminations of a plane in the flow densely seeded with fine particles. The whole field spatial frequency analysis of the double- or multiple-exposed PIV image gives more useful information of the flow field. Optical Fourier transform is a conventional technique not only for the local spatial frequency analysis but for the whole field analysis. Filtering of spatial frequency is one of the typical techniques for the latter which can reconstruct a velocity contour or a component velocity contour map of the flow. Fundamentally this technique is a simple and efficient analogue method to get more information in the velocity field analysis of the flow than a digital image processing, but in practical applications the measurement is restricted to simple flows because of optical noise and low spatial resolution. In order to improve the technique, the fundamental characteristics of the filtering and the noise yielded in the filtering process must be investigated. Meanwhile, wavelet analysis can also be applied to the whole field spatial frequency analysis of PIV image. In this paper the filtering technique is examined by numerical convolution integral, and the results obtained are compared with ones obtained by the wavelet analysis.     

Digital speckle photography and speckle tomography in heat transfer studies

The line-of-sight speckle photography of transparent media is used for quantitative measurements of the instantaneous temperature fields in 3D unsteady flows. Both electronic and photographic methods are employed for specklegram recording. The subsequent specklegram treatment uses the Young's fringes method as well as cross-correlation analysis of small interrogation areas of the recordings. Experimental data for three different heat transfer configurations are obtained and discussed. The first one is natural convection over extended vertical heated plates with forward facing steps, the second is unsteady 3D convective flow around a suddenly heated vertical thin wire, and the third one is a convective plume above a multi-jet flame. Both local and global Nusselt numbers are determined via measuring local surface temperature gradients for these convective flows. The results are compared with Ostrach's theory for a single vertical plate and with the data obtained by Mach–Zehnder interferometry. The 3D temperature fields are reconstructed for axisymmetric convective flows around a suddenly heated vertical wire using quasi-double projection measurement and the Radon inversion. 3D temperature distributions above the combustion zone are reconstructed using multi-projection speckle photography measurements and computerised tomography.

Speckle diagnostics of multiple scattering media with the use of frequency-modulated laser radiation

A method for probing randomly inhomogeneous multiple scattering media with the use of frequency-modulated laser radiation is considered. The method is based on analysis of the dependence of the blinking index of time-averaged speckles formed upon scattering of the probing radiation in a medium on the frequency modulation depth of the probing radiation. In the case of a binary frequency modulation, the blinking index of the detected speckle-modulated radiation is determined by the cosine Fourier transform of the probability density of the optical path-length difference of partial components of the scattered field in the probed medium. The values of the probability density of the optical path-length difference reconstructed with the use of the proposed method from the measured blinking index of speckles for model scattering media (fluoroplastic layer and layer of TiO₂ particles on a glass substrate) are in a good agreement with the results of statistical simulation of the probing radiation transfer in multiple scattering media.     

The image adaptive method for solder paste 3D measurement system

The extensive application of Surface Mount Technology (SMT) requires various measurement methods to evaluate the circuit board. The solder paste 3D measurement system utilizing laser light projecting on the printed circuit board (PCB) surface is one of the critical methods. The local oversaturation, arising from the non-consistent reflectivity of the PCB surface, will lead to inaccurate measurement. The paper reports a novel optical image adaptive method of remedying the local oversaturation for solder paste measurement. The liquid crystal on silicon (LCoS) and image sensor (CCD or CMOS) are combined as the high dynamic range image (HDRI) acquisition system. The significant characteristic of the new method is that the image after adjustment is captured by specially designed HDRI acquisition system programmed by the LCoS mask. The formation of the LCoS mask, depending on a HDRI combined with the image fusion algorithm, is based on separating the laser light from the local oversaturated region. Experimental results demonstrate that the method can significantly improve the accuracy for the solder paste 3D measurement system with local oversaturation.     

基于梯度下降法直接拟合光谱吸收信号的气体浓度测量方法研究

可调谐二极管激光吸收光谱技术由于选择性强、灵敏度高、精确度高、非侵入式测量等优点,被广泛应用于大气环境监测、燃烧流场诊断、工业过程控制、人体呼吸探测等领域。直接吸收技术和波长调制技术是可调谐二极管激光吸收光谱技术两种不同的测量手段,其中直接吸收技术测量系统结构简单、信号处理相对容易、成本较低、避免提前标定,在测量气体为常量组分时广泛使用。直接吸收技术测量气体浓度时,首先需要从光谱吸收信号中得到一条表示未吸收的基线信号,这一过程被称为基线拟合。基线拟合不准确会给测量结果带来较大误差,这也是直接吸收技术难以达到低探测限的原因之一。针对上述问题,基于梯度下降法,将基线、气体浓度、吸收线型等作为未知量,通过建立激光吸收光谱信号的数学模型,对透射信号直接拟合,最终得到气体的浓度信息。这种方法同步拟合了线型和基线,相比传统的积分面积法,增强了拟合的整体一致性。在近红外激光吸收光谱气体浓度检测系统上,利用中心波长在1 580 nm处的分布反馈式激光器,通过该方法对实际浓度为10%,12%,14%,16%,18%和20%的CO₂进行了测量,并将测量结果与积分面积法测量结果进行对比。研究结果显示,六种浓度下直接拟合法的曲线拟合方差均小于1×10-4,测量浓度的最小相对误差仅为0.90%,最大相对误差为4.40%,此时迭代时间在4 s以内,计算检测限为0.39%;直接拟合法和积分面积法得到的浓度平均相对误差分别为2.63%和5.74%,直接拟合法优于积分面积法。实验研究验证了基于梯度下降法直接拟合光谱吸收信号的气体浓度测量方法的可行性与准确性,为直接吸收技术提供了一个新的思路。     

Study of ferroelectric switching by domain-wall induced light scattering

Measurements of 90°-scattering of weak laser light are used to investigate pulsed domain switching in ferroelectrics. The studies were performed on strontium-barium niobate (SBN) single crystals. A good agreement of the switching parameters estimated from the optical measurements with those obtained by means of conventional electrical methods proves the validity of the optical method for switching studies. Due to the limited scattering volume in all three spatial dimensions, the method facilitates local probing of the switching within the crystal bulk. In particular, local specialities of the domain density can be detected. Furthermore, the excellent time resolution inherent in optical probing techniques allows for a comprehensive study of the dynamics.     

Improve accuracy of laser beam width measurement using a genetic algorithm

Beam width measurements of laser beams based on CCD by the second moment method as proposed by International Standardization Organization, are excessively sensitive to the noise far from light beam center. A novel method of noise elimination based on the analysis of the influence from CCD noise on laser beam width measurement result is proposed. The appropriate integral region could be obtained by genetic algorithm to improve accuracy of laser beam width measurement. The experimental results show that method could tolerate heavy CCD noise, and define the corresponding integral region according to requested precision.     

Mathematical modeling of two-photon thermal fields in laser–solid interaction

In this paper, we have developed an analytical model to study the temperature distributions in IR optical materials heated by laser pulses. Our model takes into account the two-photon absorption (TPA). The calculations are based on a three-dimensional model of heat diffusion in solids using the integral transform method. We find out the rigorous analytical expression of the thermal field when one considers both one- and two-photon absorption. The model is valid for any laser–solid system whose interaction can be described by the generalized Beer–Lambert law. Specific results are presented for an application of the model to ZnSe sample. We find out that TPA can produce detectable temperature variation.     

Simultaneous measurement of particle size, velocity, andtemperature in thermal plasmas

The in-flight measurement of particle parameters (size, velocity, temperature, and local number density) can prove insight into the plasma processing of solid materials. A measurement technique for simultaneously obtaining the size, velocity, and temperature of particles entrained in high-temperature flow fields is described. Particle size and velocity are obtained from a combination laser-particle-sizing system and laser Doppler velocimeter. The particle temperature is determined by a two-color pyrometry technique and the data rate is a measure of relative particle number density. Typical measured temperatures and velocities for the 5-100 μm particles used in plasma spraying are 1600-3500 K and 100-300 m/s, respectively. Since particle size, velocity, and temperature are measured simultaneously, cold particles (<1600 K) are identified and their relative number density can be quantified. Data from two plasma spray systems, a metal one (Ni-Al) and a metal oxide one (Al₂O₃), are presented and their application to understanding the plasma spray-coating process is illustrated     

Optimal Filtering Applied to the Inversion of the Laplace Transform

Inversion of the Laplace transform, used in the laser scattering measurement of colloidal particle size distributions, presents severe numerical difficulties. In the presence of noise the variance of the inversion integral is infinite, indicating maximum uncertainty in the inversion. This paper applies the method of minimum variance, or “optimal”, filtering to the eigenfunction spectrum of the Laplace transform, giving an inversion which has finite variance. Spectral decomposition using the eigenfunctions of the Laplace transform gives a representation of the noise and desired signals analogous to the Fourier spectrum used in linear system theory. It is possible to obtain a filtered estimate of the unknown linewidth distribution. The requirement that the variance of this filtered estimate is minimum leads to a Wiener-Hopf integral equation defining the optimal filter. The results of this paper provide a basis of comparison of all methods of inversion of the Laplace transform, including the extensive literature of colloidal particle sizing by laser scattering or photon correlation.     

Differential reflectometry of FBG sensors in the wide spectral range

The paper presents a reflectometric technique for interrogation of multiple fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors based on conventional optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR). The method proposed rests on the differential measurement of FBGs’ response to a short probing laser pulse. Implementation of differential measurement principle using several reference FBGs allowed us to eliminate the susceptibility of the system to intensity fluctuations as well as to increase the measurement range as compared to the previous developments. The experimental threshold sensitivity amounted to ∼50 microstrain with the measurement range being defined by the number of reference FBGs and limited only by optical fiber tensile strength. Due to its simplicity, efficiency and usage of conventional OTDR equipment the proposed FBG interrogation technique can find a wide range of applications dealing with strain and temperature measurements.     

4D-PTV Measurements of an impinged jet with a dynamic 3D-PTV

4D-PTV system was constructed. The measurement system consists of three high-speed high-definition cameras (1k × 1k, 2000 fps), Nd-Yag laser (2000 Hz) and a host computer. The GA-3D-PTV algorithm was used for completing the measurement system. The 4D-PTV is capable of probing the spatial distribution of velocity vectors of the flow field overcoming the temporal resolution of the characteristic turbulence length scales of the measured flow fields. A horizontal impinged jet flow (H/D = 7) was measured. The Reynolds number is about 33,000. Spatial temporal evolution of the jet flow was examined and physical properties such as spatial distributions of vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy were obtained with the constructed system.

Young's fringes analysis with a computer image-processing system

A two-dimensional Fourier transform analysis is presented for numerically processing the Young's fringes diffraction pattern from a double- exposure speckle photograph. The fringe spacing and orientation are determined using only one Young's fringes pattern without any other diffraction halo patterns. This algorithm is based on the 2-D FFT of the fringe pattern with 256 × 256 pixels. Therefore, it enables automatic analysis to be performed on specklegram with noisy and poor fringe patterns. The measurement of deformation by the laser speckle method can be carried out with high accuracy, reliability and speed.
