Megahertz Imaging System for Time-Resolved Detonation Diagnostics
Abstract
Funds are requested for the acquisition of an ultrahigh-speed imaging system. This equipment will be used in support of multiple Air Force (AFOSR, AFRL) and Department of Defense (DOD) projects focused on rotating detonation combustion, high-speed airbreathing engines, and other propulsion systems. The new detector will be used to perform measurements of temperature, species concentration, and flame structure in numerous experiments by applying the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) techniques at rates as high as 1 MHz. These measurements will provide temporally-resolved, quantitative information to improve fundamental understanding combustion processes in DOD propulsion systems and to support complementary modeling efforts. The total amount requested for the ultrahigh-speed imaging system is $385,125
