The Chemiluminescence method is considered as one of the most widely optical methods that used for identifying combustion systems. In this study, the OH^* and CH^* Chemiluminescence signals were measured with the use of PMT detector and other optical equipments for a bunsen burner. Also the effect of equivalence ratio and flow rate on these signals have been investigated. The results show that with increasing flow rate, OH^* and CH^* signals increase linearly. By changing the equivalence ratio, both signals were maximized near stoichiometric condition (OH^* in lean side and CH^* in the rich side). Therefore, both OH^* and CH^* are considered as indicators of released heat rate. It was also... 

In this study, using a non-interference experimental method, the chemical luminosity of CH* in co-flow diffusion flames with soot and using natural gas hydrocarbon in a laminar flow regime has been investigated. In addition to experimental research, in current research, numerical simulation has been used to extract information such as temperature field, mass fraction of species, and flow structure and comparison and validation with experimental results. Numerical simulation has been used to simulate the mechanism of CH* species formation. Two different mechanisms have been used. In addition, the Soot simulation model from the Moss-Brookes model and radiation heat transfer mechanism... 

In the present work, the local Chemiluminescence method has been implemented on a laminar premixed propane-air flame. The goal of this work is to achieve a system capable of measuring the intensity of Chemiluminescent radiations of CH* and OH* radicals locally and with high spatial and temporal accuracy. For this purpose, a setup has been designed and developed. In order to achieve high spatial accuracy for local measurements, a Cassegrain lens has been designed and built, which has the ability to collect light from a cylindrical control volume with a cross-sectional diameter of 58 μm and a depth of 3.4 mm. An optical system for dividing and filtering light based on wavelength has also been... 

This research introduces temperature measurement by a non-intrusive pyrometric method of the ratio of two colors of soot. For pyrometry, the spectral sensitivity of the Nikon D7100 camera was obtained by developing a neural network based on the results of photographing colored papers and their spectrum, and this camera was used for temperature measurement. Based on the dependence of soot radiation on temperature and the spectral sensitivity of the camera, a calibration chart has been extracted on the ratio of the green channel to the red channel of the camera with the soot temperature, which is used to produce the temperature contour using the flame image. The temperature contour of...
