Development and Testing of a Resonance Source Gas Filter Correlation Spectrometer

Abstract

The development and testing of a resonance source gas filter correlation spectrometer for carbon monoxide concentration measurement in high temperature, possibly acoustically and optically noisy combustion systems are described. The instrument incorporates a microwave-excited, low-pressure carbon monoxide plasma radiation source. The operation, calibration, and modeling of the instrument response as well as application to the measurement of CO concentration in the exhaust of a jet engine combustor are described. The report concludes with suggestions for the further use and development of the instrument.
