Infrared laser-absorption spectroscopy (IR-LAS) sensors play an important role in
diagnosing and characterizing a wide range of combustion systems. Of all the laser …

Laser absorption spectroscopy (LAS) has been rapidly developed and widely applied to
combustion diagnosis in recent decades. As a cost-effective tool for measuring multiple …

The combustion of methane in air results in large amounts of CO 2 and NO X emissions. In
order to reduce the NO X emissions, one possible solution is the oxy-methane combustion …

As a carbon-free fuel, NH 3 has been considered as a potential and promising alternative
energy carrier in the future transportation system. This study simultaneously measured the …

Chemical kinetic experiments involving the oxidation or pyrolysis of fuels can be complex,
especially when multiple species are formed and consumed simultaneously. Therefore, a …

In the study of chemical reactions, it is desirable to have a diagnostic strategy that can detect
multiple species simultaneously with high sensitivity, selectivity, and fast time response …

Time-histories of the concentration of major products of ethanol pyrolysis at 1 atm and 10
atm in the temperature range of 1200–1600 K were measured behind reflected shock waves …

The development of compact HyChem hybrid models for jet fuels requires datasets of
pyrolysis product yields to constrain the model and of kinetic targets to evaluate the model …

Ethane pyrolysis chemistry plays a critical role in the combustion behavior of natural gas and
gives insight into the decomposition patterns of larger alkanes. In this work, ethane pyrolysis …

We report the development of a novel laser absorption diagnostic for accurate, time-resolved
and in situ measurement of various hydrocarbon fuels in combustion systems. This …
