This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OH and fuel planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) is used qualitatively in this study to observe the flame structure resultant from different fuel injector dome configurations within the 3-cup sector combustor test rig. The fluorescence images are compared with some computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results. Interferences in obtaining OH fluorescence signals due to the emission of other species are assessed. NO PLIF images are presented and compared to gas analysis results. The comparison shows that PLIF NO can be an excellent method for measuring NO in the flame. Additionally, we present flow visualization of the molecular species C2.Hicks, Yolanda R. and Locke, Randy J. and Anderson, Robert C.Glenn Research CenterCOMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS; FLOW DISTRIBUTION; LASER INDUCED FLUORESCENCE; PREMIXING; COMBUSTION CHAMBERS; PREVAPORIZATION; GAS ANALYSIS; FUEL INJECTION; DETECTORS; CCD CAMERAS; LASER BEAMS; HYDROXIDES; NITROGEN OXIDES; IMAGE ANALYSIS; LASER APPLICATIONS

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report covers the expenditure of DURIP grant for the design fabrication and assembly of a state-of-the-art planar laser-induced fluorescent (PLIF) instrumentation system. The equipment will be used to acquire time-accurate and spatially resolved species concentrations of OH and NO in a combustor test rig operating at flow rates as high as 1 kgm/s and up to four atmospheres. Successful initial results have been obtained for methane-air flames at atmospheric pressure. This apparatus forms a significant addition to the Caltech program of research in combustion instabilities and applications of active control to combustor dynamics.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study has focused on development, optimisation and implementation of the 2-line Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (2-line PLIF) technique for combustion measurements on a single cylinder optical Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) engine with both Spark Ignition (SI) and Controlled Auto Ignition (CAI) combustion operations. The CAI combustion was achieved by employing Negative Valve Overlap (NVO). Two excitation wavelengths at 308 nm (directly from a XeCl laser) and 277 nm (via Raman shifting a KrF laser output at 248 nm) were exploited for the measurements. A calibration curve of fluorescence signal intensity ratio of the two laser beams as a function of temperature was obtained by conducting a series of static tests on a specially designed Constant Volume Chamber (CVC). The developed technique was validated by measurements of in-cylinder charge temperature during the compression stroke for both motoring and firing cycles and comparing the PLIF values with the temperature values calculated from in-cylinder pressure data assuming a polytropic compression. Following the validation measurements, the technique was applied to study of fuel spray characteristics and simultaneous measurements of in-cylinder charge temperature and mole fraction of Exhaust Gas Residuals (EGR). Further optimisation of the thermometry technique by enhancing the fluorescence Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and improving both the temporal and spatial resolutions as well as measurements precision provided the opportunity to apply the technique to other combustion measurements. The thesis presents the first application of the 2-line PLIF diagnostic in study of direct injection charge cooling effects and study of flame thermal stratification in IC engines.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research was to develop laser-induced fluorescence detection in high-throughput screening of heterogeneous catalysts and single cells analysis. First, a high-throughput in situ screening approach for solid heterogeneous catalysts by laser-induced fluorescence imaging is introduced. We demonstrated LIFI has good detection performance and the spatial and temporal resolution needed for high-throughput screening of heterogeneous catalysts. We further applied the LIFI screening system for combinatorial discovery of heterogeneous catalysts and reaction condition optimization for naphthalene oxidation, as well as combinatorial study of catalytic performance of zeolites in acylation of aromatics. In the second part of this dissertation, we used laser-induced native fluorescence coupled with capillary electrophoresis (LINF-CE) and microscope imaging to study the single cell degranulation. On the basis of good temporal correlation with events observed through an optical microscope, we have identified individual peaks in the fluorescence electropherograms as serotonin released from the granular core on contact with the surrounding fluid.

This book was released on 2019-01-19 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) is used by the Combustion Branch at the NASA Glenn Research Center (NASA Glenn) to assess the characteristics of the flowfield produced by aircraft fuel injectors. To improve and expand the capabilities of the PLIF system new equipment was installed. The new capabilities of the modified PLIF system are assessed by collecting OH PLIF in a methane/air flame produced by a flat flame burner. Specifically, the modifications characterized are the addition of an injection seeder to a Nd: YAG laser pumping an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) and the use of a new camera with an interline CCD. OH fluorescence results using the injection seeded OPO laser are compared to results using a Nd: YAG pumped dye laser with ultraviolet extender (UVX). Best settings of the new camera for maximum detection of PLIF signal are reported for the controller gain and microchannel plate (MCP) bracket pulsing. Results are also reported from tests of the Dual Image Feature (DIF) mode of the new camera which allows image pairs to be acquired in rapid succession. This allows acquisition of a PLIF image and a background signal almost simultaneously. Saturation effects in the new camera were also investigated and are reported.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Light atomic species such as oxygen atoms (O) and hydrogen atoms (H) are fundamentally important in a wide variety of combustion-related phenomena such as flame ignition, propagation, extinction and in chemical flame reactions. Furthermore, they are difficult to detect by conventional laser based optical methods (laser induced fluorescence) in combustion environments because the necessary resonance excitation wavelengths fall far into the vacuum ultraviolet (vuv) and the requisite tunable laser sources are not generally available. However, recent developments in nonlinear spectroscopic techniques such as multiphoton induced emission (MPE) and multiphoton ionization (MPI) have made direct detection of these light atoms possible. We have utilized a number of laser multiphoton excitation schemes for their detection using tunable lasers in the 190 to 400 nm range. Similar diagnostic techniques were attempted for the detection of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) atoms in flames. The effects of laser induced photochemical pertubations on species detection in flames were also investigated. These nonlinear spectroscopic techniques have been demonstrated to be very useful in combustion studies but special care needs to be taken with respect to possible perturbations that may result from the use of short-wavelength lasers.
