Book Description
OH and fuel planar laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) is used qualitatively in this study to observe the flame structure resultant from different fuel injector dome configurations within the 3-cup sector combustor test rig. The fluorescence images are compared with some computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results. Interferences in obtaining OH fluorescence signals due to the emission of other species are assessed. NO PLIF images are presented and compared to gas analysis results. The comparison shows that PLIF NO can be an excellent method for measuring NO in the flame. Additionally, we present flow visualization of the molecular species C2.Hicks, Yolanda R. and Locke, Randy J. and Anderson, Robert C.Glenn Research CenterCOMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS; FLOW DISTRIBUTION; LASER INDUCED FLUORESCENCE; PREMIXING; COMBUSTION CHAMBERS; PREVAPORIZATION; GAS ANALYSIS; FUEL INJECTION; DETECTORS; CCD CAMERAS; LASER BEAMS; HYDROXIDES; NITROGEN OXIDES; IMAGE ANALYSIS; LASER APPLICATIONS

Book Description
This report describes the results of experimental and numerical investigations on gas-turbine combustion and fuel processes. The purpose of this program is the advancement of the state-of-the-art in laser diagnostics, modeling and simulations, propulsion sciences, advanced propulsion concepts, current and next-generation gas-turbine-engine components, and high-impact revolutionary technologies for airbreathing propulsion systems. The objectives of this research program include: Development, evaluation, and utilization of state-of-the-art-laser diagnostic techniques and analytical simulations and models in the study of combustion, fuel, turbine, and compressor processes that are important to current and future propulsion systems. Performance of fundamental experiments that will advance the understanding of critical combustion and fuel processes. Identification and development of the critical-technology needs of pulsed-detonation engines. Performance of advanced-cycle-aero and aerospace-propulsion-system studies that will result in high-impact revolutionary technologies. Evaluation of potential commercial applications of advanced technologies developed during the program.

Book Description
During June-August 1997 Dr. Jonathan Miles participated in the ASEE-sponsored summer faculty research program at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC). The Aerospace Electronic Systems Division (AESD), Sensor Systems Branch (SSB), at NASA LARC had proposed a new mission, GEOstationary TROpospheric Pollution SATellite (GEO TROPSAT), to address critical science questions of tropospheric chemistry. The troposphere is a complex system, comprising "point" and distributed sources of natural and anthropogenic origin; complicated transport processes, both lateral and vertical; and photochemistry driven by UV flux, temperature, atmospheric composition, and other variables. GEO TROPSAT would be implemented about a geostationary Earth orbital (GEO) position at the equator between 600 and 80" West longitude to observe the Americas and large portions of the oceans of either coast. This mission would advance our knowledge of the atmosphere by capturing the wide temporal and spatial variability of tropospheric phenomena which is undetectable from low Earth orbit. A pre-prototype imaging carbon monoxide (CO) imaging system operating within a narrow waveband about 4.7 [Lm was built, demonstrated, and evaluated. This system applies the gas-filter correlation radiometry (GFCR) technique and produces digitized images comprising 4096 pixels, each representing a single CO mixing ratio measurement inferred from radiometric data. Associated tasks accomplished included specification for the next-generation prototype system to operate in the 2.3-@tm waveband; characterization of a 64x64, InSb focal-plane-array (FPA) imager; design, fabrication, and assembly of a filter wheel; and software development. Laboratory evaluation of this system involved imaging of a test cell placed in the path of radiant flux emanating from a blackbody source used to simulate the radiant energy reflected by Earth in real application. The cell was evacuated for system balancing and then charged with me
