Abstract :
Diode lasers offer the opportunity for wavelength-tunable absorption-based sensors for practical combustion applications. Wavelength-multiplexed diode lasers are used to monitor multiple absorption features of product water vapor and other combustion emissions. Progress in the development of robust sensors for variety of practical applications including ground test of new aero-engine concepts and practical industrial combustors
