Combustion diagnostics by nonintrusive methods; Thermophysics Conference, 18th, Montreal, Canada, June 1-3, 1983, Selected Papers

The state of the art in coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is outlined, and current diagnostic capabilities in particle and combustion diagnostics are demonstrated. The development and application of CARS to combustion systems is discussed, and the use of LIF for flow diagnostics is addressed. Nonintrusive particle diagnostics is treated, and a variety of nonintrusive techniques applied to combustion environments is considered.
