Laser-Based Instrumentation for Real-Time, In-Situ Measurements of Combustible Gases, Combustion By-Products, and Suppression Concentrations During Fire Suppression

Abstract

This report describes results of a 3-year program to investigate applications of laser-based instrumentation to real-time measurements of combustible gases, combustion by-products, and suppression concentrations during suppression of fires and explosions. This program was sponsored by the Department of Defense Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program.
