Instrumentation for Laser-Based Flowfield Imaging and Flow Facilities for Diagnostics Research

Abstract

This award has enabled acquisition of four state-of-the-art items of experimental apparatus to be used in research on diagnostics for combustion and plasma flows: a tunable excimer laser, a solid-state intensified camera system, a plasma diagnostics facility, and a laser-photolysis shock tube apparatus. All four systems are now operational and performing at or above initial expectations. Keywords: Laser; Solid-state camera; Imaging; Fluorescence; Flowfield.
