Abstract

To realize OH-PLIF which can eliminate intense OH(0,0) band chemiluminescence in the rocket combustion, OH-PLIF measurements using OH(2,0) band excitation were conducted to observe OH fluorescence for H2/O2 jet diffusion flames at high pressure. In addition, reaction kinetics of excited species OH (denoted as OH at excited states) was modeled and the pressure dependence of OH mole concentration was simulated using H2/O2 opposed-flow flame model at high pressure. Experimental results showed that OH-PLIF measurements using OH(2,0) band excitation system can effectively eliminate the OH(0,0) band chemiluminescence and the OH(2,1) band fluorescence at high pressure conditions (∼ 2.54 MPa) can be collected. Moreover, pressure dependence of numerical simulated OH peak mole concentration corresponded qualitatively to that of OH(0,0) band peak radiance obtained by spectroscopic measurements. It is indicated that OH-PLIF measurement by the use of OH(1,0) band excitations is extremely difficult because chemiluminescence signal is too strong to detect the fluorescence signal. According to the experimental and numerical simulation results, the feasibility of OH(2,0) band excitation and necessity to eliminate OH chemiluminescence were suggested when the OH-PLIF measurement is applied to the rocket combustion.
