Fluorescence lifetime imaging of nitric oxide in nanosecond pulsed discharge-assisted NH3/air flames
Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) is a widely used non-invasive method for characterizing NOx emission, mostly in combustion applications, but also in many plasma facilities. Under the carbon-free prerequisite, non-thermal plasma-assisted combustion (PAC) is a promising technology to address the low flammability issues of ammonia (NH3) flames, but nitric oxide (NO) emission remains unknown.
