Research Topics:

Laser diagnostics for multiphase flows

Rapid and reliable measurements of critical properties in multiphase flows (e.g., temperature, vapor concentration, and droplets/particulates density) are highly desirable, and yet challenging, in many scientific and industrial applications. This research develops novel imaging techniques to address such important measurement needs. These techniques use wavelength-multiplexed absorption and photodissociation spectroscopy to overcome the challenges.

Tomographic imaging based on hyperspectral spectroscopy

This research seeks to significantly enhance the performance of tomography techniques using hyperspectral absorption spectroscopy. Traditional tomography techniques usually use a few wavelengths, which results in cumbersome experimental requirements and limited measurement capability. This research exploits the spectral information content enabled by hyperspectral lasers to reduce experimental complexity, improve imaging accuracy, and enable simultaneous monitoring of multiple properties (e.g., concentration and temperature).

Laser diagnostics for fundamental combustion research

Laser diagnostics are being developed to study the complicated physics of combustion at a fundamental level. For example, a technique based on photodissociation spectroscopy is developed to measure two-dimensional mixture fraction, a solely needed measurement in the research of turbulent combustion.
