Spatially Resolved Temperature Measurements Above a Burning Wood Pellet Using Diode Laser-Based Two-Line Atomic Fluorescence
Diode laser-based two-line atomic fluorescence (TLAF) thermometry applied to flames of combusting wood pellets is demonstrated. The temperature above burning wood pellets placed in the hot product gas of gallium seeded laminar flames is measured. The calibration-free technique provides spatially resolved temperatures in one dimension with sufficient temporal resolution to resolve all combustion st
