Simultaneous imaging of CH, 2∗, and temperature in flames using a DSLR camera and structured illumination.

Measurement of chemical species and temperature mapping in flames is essential to understanding the combustion process. Multiple cameras are conventionally employed for measurement in such scenarios making the experimental setup not only cost-intensive but also challenging. To circumvent this, structured illumination (SI)-based methods are reported for multispecies chemiluminescence (CL) imaging using a single camera.

Application of FRAME for Simultaneous LIF and LII Imaging in Sooting Flames Using a Single Camera.

In this article, the application of the FRAME (Frequency Recognition Algorithm for Multiple Exposures) technique is presented for multi-species measurements in symmetric and asymmetric ethylene/air diffusion flames. Laminar Bunsen-type and swirled diffusion flames are investigated to gain a better understanding of sooting combustion. For this purpose, simultaneous imaging is conducted in terms of Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH) and Laser-Induced Incandescence (LII) of soot particles.
