Abstract

The effect of LII interference on the measurement of LIF signals from PAH in a diffusion flame has been investigated. Argon-ion laser at 488 nm was vertically or horizontally polarized, and irradiated to the centerline of the flame at varying flame height. Signals from PAH-rich regions measured at 515 nm were mostly LIF signals, however, signals from soot-rich regions were determined to be mixed with Mie scattering signals and/or LII signals. Signals measured 1 mm above the excitation height were mostly LII signals from soot particles. The results show that a quantitative determination of the LIF's contribution to the measured signals would be difficult as long as the experimental setup described here is used for the regions where PAHs and soot particles exist together.
