Determination of flame temperature using the anomalous fluorescence of pyrene

Not Accessible

Abstract

We report the first use to our knowledge of the anomalous fluorescence of pyrene to determine flame temperature. Vapor-phase pyrene was injected into fuel-rich ethylene/oxygen flames at 80 Torr. The relative laser-induced (S2S0)/(S1S0) emission was monitored as a function of height above the burner and compared with the temperature profile as measured by thermocouples and sodium D-line reversal. The agreement between the ratioing technique and the flame-temperature profile demonstrates the potential of the method.
