High-Speed Imaging System for Droplet Collision and Unsteady Combustion Studies

Abstract

Two high-speed imaging systems were acquired for ongoing combustion research supported by AFOSR and ARO. All research programs involve extensive experimentation of unsteady flows, such as the bouncing/merging events for colliding droplets, the propagation of high- speed premixed flames, and the complex ignition kinetics in turbulent flows. Superior spatially and temporally resolved images have since been obtained with these systems.
