Volume-resolved flame chemiluminescence and laser-induced fluorescence imaging
2013
Overview
There is significant need for optical diagnostic techniques to measure instantaneous volumetric vector and scalar distributions in fluid flows and combustion processes. This is especially true for investigations where only limited optical access is available, such as in internal combustion engines, furnaces, flow reactors, etc. While techniques such as tomographic PIV for velocity measurement have emerged and reached a good level of maturity, instantaneous 3D measurements of scalar quantities are not available at the same level. Recently, developments in light field technology have progressed to a degree where implementation into scientific 3D imaging becomes feasible. Others have already demonstrated the utility of light field technology toward imaging high-contrast particles for PIV and for imaging flames when treated as single-surface objects. Here, the applicability and shortcomings of current commercially available light field technology toward volumetric imaging of translucent scalar distributions and flames are investigated. Results are presented from imaging canonical chemiluminescent and laser-induced fluorescent systems. While the current light field technology is able to qualitatively determine the position of surfaces by locating high-contrast features, the correlation-based reconstruction algorithm is unable to fully reconstruct the imaged objects for quantitative diagnostics. Current analysis algorithms are based on high-contrast correlation schemes, and new tools, possibly based on tomographic concepts, will have to be implemented to reconstruct the full 3D structure of translucent objects for quantitative analysis.
