Non-Intrusive Combustion Diagnostics

Kenneth K. Kuo Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA Timothy P. Parr Naval Air Warfare Center, China Lake, CA

This volume selects over sixty papers presented at this symposium, and provides an excellent introduction to the state-of-the-art technology in non-intrusive combustion diagnostics for propulsion systems. As such, it is invaluable for researchers wishing to adopt the methods directly, to those interested in assessing the accuracy, advantages, and limitations of specific techniques, and to those seeking a starting point for new ideas toward advances in combustion diagnostics. Topics range from LIF and PLIF techniques to diagnostics of particles, gaseous reaction systems, and solid propellants. Also covered are diagnostics in practical combustion systems.
