  1. 1. Upconversion Detection for Improved Nonlinear Mid-infrared Spectroscopy in Flames

    Author : Rasmus Lyngbye Pedersen; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; infrared; upconversion; degenerate four wave mixing; hydrogen cyanide; polarisation spectroscopy;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the addition of upconversion detection to non-linear mid-infrared laser spectroscopy techniques. The techniques investigated here are degenerate four wave mixing (DFWM) and infrared polarization spectroscopy (IRPS). READ MORE

  2. 2. New methods for improving winter road maintenence

    Author : Mats Riehm; Per-Erik Jansson; Torbjörn Gustavsson; Klas Hansson; Meelis Mölder; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Winter road maintenance; Sensors; Infrared thermometry; Energy efficiency; De-icing salt; Other civil engineering and architecture; Övrig samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Abstract : Winter road maintenance activities are crucial for maintaining the accessibility and traffic safety of the road network during winters. Common winter road maintenance activities include plowing and the use of de-icing agents (e.g. NaCl) to avoid freezing. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development and Application of Non-linear Mid-infrared Laser Spectroscopy for Combustion Diagnostics

    Author : Zhiwei Sun; Förbränningsfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Degenerate four-wave mixing; Polarization spectroscopy; Mid-infrared; Non-linear laser spectroscopy; Laser diagnostics; Combustion; Flame; HITRAN; Concentration; Temperature; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Sun;

    Abstract : The work reported in this thesis involved the development and application of two novel infrared non-linear laser techniques, namely mid-infrared polarization spectroscopy (IRPS) and mid-infrared degenerate four-wave mixing (IR-DFWM) to combustion diagnostics. These two techniques meet the needs of species concentration detection in combustion environments, especially for those species lacking accessible electronic (one-photon) transitions in the ultraviolet (UV) or visible spectral region.

  4. 4. Experiments on Heat Transfer During Diesel Combustion Using Optical Methods

    Author : Christian Binder; Andreas Cronhjort; Mattias Richter; Andrew Heyes; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Heat transfer; Internal combustion engines; Phosphor thermometry; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Transportation is a crucial part of modern societies. This includes their economies. Trade and the transportation of goods have a great influence on prosperity. Nevertheless, the transportation sector with road transport in particular is heavily dependent on fossil fuels and emits a significant amount of greenhouse gases. READ MORE

  5. 5. Measurements for winter road maintenance

    Author : Mats Riehm; Per-Erik Jansson; Eros Pasero; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; winter road maintenance; sensors; infrared thermometry; energy efficiency; road salt;

    Abstract : Winter road maintenance activities are crucial for maintaining the accessibility and traffic safety of the road network at northerly latitudes during winter. Common winter road maintenance activities include snow ploughing and the use of anti-icing agents (e.g. road salt, NaCl). READ MORE
