Abstract

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was used for in-situ diagnostics of chemically reacting flows. LIBS gives spectral data on the elemental composition that can be analyzed to yield a variety of information on the thermal and chemical parameters such as the temperature and chemical composition. Comparison between Rayleigh scattering temperature measurements and LIBS was performed. The results show that LIBS along with other applications in thermal and flow processes has an important utility for measurements of temperature under difficult observational conditions.
