Two-dimensional thermometry by the two-line atomic fluorescence method (TLAF) from
atomic indium performed in an internal combustion engine is reported for the first time. The …

Two-dimensional temperature fields are measured in lean and sooting flames by means of
two-color laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) imaging that uses seeded NO. Vibrational …

Laser-induced-fluorescence techniques have been used successfully for quantitative two-
dimensional measurements of nitric oxide. NO A–X (0, 2) excitation at 248 nm recently found …

The spatial distribution of chemical species can be a critical determinant of the performance
of chemical reactors. One such reactor is the combustion chamber of the Internal …

Limiting the in-cylinder nitric oxide (NO) formation is a crucial task in the development of
engines with gasoline direct injection. Exhaust gas aftertreatment requires storage catalysts …

We present quantitative, in-cylinder, UV-laser-induced fluorescence measurements of nitric
oxide in a heavy-duty Diesel engine. Processing of the raw fluorescence signals includes a …

The ionization sensor is an electrical probe for diagnostics in internal combustion engines.
The combustion process affects the electrical properties of the gas in the cylinder. Thus the …

Measurements of the local flow and mixture condition near the spark plug of internal
combustion engines are important to characterize their influence on ignition and combustion …

In laser spectroscopy the interaction of light emitted from various types of laser sources–
tunable or nontunable in their output frequency–with the atomic or molecular species of …

The spatial and temporal formation of nitric oxide in an optical engine operated with iso-
octane fuel under spray-guided direct-injection conditions was studied with a combination of …
