The safe, clean, and reliable operation of combustion devices depends to a large degree on
the exact control of the fuel/air mixing process prior to ignition. Therefore, quantitative …

The editors have assembled a world-class group of contributors who address the questions
the combustion diagnostic community faces. They are chemists who identify the species to …

Recent determinations of the temperature dependence of acetone fluorescence have
permitted the application of acetone planar laser-induced fluorescence imaging, which was …

In previous studies, acetone has been successfully applied as a tracer for planar laser-
induced fluorescence (PLIF) measurements of concentration and temperature. The desire to …

In recent years, a large number of linear and nonlinear laser-based diagnostic techniques
for nonintrusive measurements of species concentrations, temperatures, and gas velocities …

Imaging of concentration with acetone PLIF has become popular in mixing investigations.
More recently, studies of the temperature dependences of acetone fluorescence have …

Abstract Acetone (CH 3 COCH 3) is an excellent tracer for planar laser-induced
fluorescence (PLIF) imaging in gaseous flows due to its low toxicity, high vapor pressure …

In this work, 10 kHz molecular tagging velocimetry (MTV) in a M∞= 4 Ludwieg tube is done
using a partial pressure of acetone seeded into the facility driver tube. Despite using air as …

A study of in-cylinder fuel–air mixing distributions in a firing gasoline-direct-injection engine
is reported using planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) imaging. A multi-component fuel …

Tracer based planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) has emerged as a powerful in-situ
measurement technique with a considerable spatial and temporal resolution for Internal …
