Mass Spectrometric Measurements of Combustor Species in Ramjet Combustion Systems

Abstract

This final report summarizes progress realized during the contract period. The work accomplished is described here in four sections. In the first section, the design, fabrication and evaluation of an improved gas sampling probe system are reported. The second section of the report describes progress in the development of batch combustor sampling and methodology for analysis of the samples collected. In the third section, the construction of a novel molecular beam mass spectrometric gas monitoring system is described. Results of several initial checkout tests of this new system are also reported. The final section summarizes the results of a series of in-situ measurements of the simulated fuel/air mixing profiles in the ramjet combustor flowfield using a dual-inlet ducted rocket combustor.
