Abstract

An approach of reducing spontaneous Raman spectroscopy data, based on the matrix inversion method which logically removes undesired sources of the Raman scattering signals including cross-talk due to the signals from other species, is discussed. The approach contains extensive calibration of temperature-dependent system response. The Raman spectra of several cold and hot calibration flames and their resulting calibration matrix are elaborated. The structure of H2-CO2-air tubular flames, in terms of major species (CO2, O2, N2, H2O, and H2) concentrations and temperature, was successfully measured with the optical technique. The Raman spectra data used in this study are taken from a uniquely designed experimental apparatus – a tubular burner and Raman spectroscopy system at Vanderbilt University. The characteristic uncertainties for chemical species are approximately ±2% by mole fraction for hot products and ±0.5% for room temperature reactants. The approach described here for hydrogen/air tubular flames may be adapted to hydrocarbon/air tubular flames when other necessary major species, for example, CH4 and CO for methane/air tubular flame, are considered in the whole process.
