Soot formation and oxidation is closely related to the combustion phenomena inside a diesel engine. Laser-based diagnostics provide a means for improving our understanding of diesel combustion, because they have highly temporal and spatial ability. To understand the soot behavior we did preliminary study by taking flame luminosity photographs and 2-D images of soot distribution using Laser Elastic Scattering(LIS) and Laser-Induced Incandescence(LII). From the data we found that soot concentration was high in the bowl and disappeared from the central region in the late combustion stage and that soot exists in the flame using luminosity, LIS and LII.

The technique of laser sheet beam has been applied to optically accessible diesel engine for the quantitative measurement of soot. The results provide the information for us for reduction of soot in diesel engine. We used both LIS nad LII techniques simultaneously in this study. LIS and LII images show the quantitative distribution of the soot concentration in an optically accessible diesel engine. In this study, several results were obtained by the simultaneous measurement of LIS and LII technique. The diameter and number density of soot in combustion chamber of the test engine were obtained from ATDC 20$^{\circ}$ to 110$^{\circ}$ . The increase rate of soot diameter was about 40$^{\circ}$ between ATDC 20$^{\circ}$and 110$^{\circ}$. And the number density of soot decreased significantly between ATDC 20$^{\circ}$and 40$^{\circ}$.

In order to clarify the characteristics of soot formation and oxidation in-cylinder of a diesel engine, it is necessary to diagnose accurately for combustion of in-cylinder. The past techniques for soot measurement have limitations in providing the characteristics of soot in a diesel engine, whereas, laser-based 2D imaging diagnostics have the potential to provide better temporally and spatially resolved measurements of the soot distribution. We rebuilt an optically accessible diesel engine which is similar to the conditions of a conventional engine and tried to measure soot distribution in a cylinder of the diesel engine using laser induced scattering(LIS) and laser induced incandescence(LII). Some results were acquired in this study. LIS and LII signal that show soot distribution of a in-cylinder were taken by ICCD properly. The signal of LIS was intenser than that of LII. Although they have some differences of signal intensity in early combusion period, both of signals show that they are generally similar in late combustion period, after ATDC 50 degree.

Recently the laser sheet technique has been developed to improve our limited understanding of the in-cylinder diesel combustion. The technique is capable of high temporal and spatial resolution, so that it is proved to be an adequate combustion diagnostics to find out exhaust emission formation. The optical signals of LIS(Laser Induced Scattering) and LII(Laser Induced Incandescence) images show informations for soot concentration within the optically accessible diesel engine. The LIS and LII signal images of soot concentration provide new insight into where and when soot occurs in a diesel engine.
