  1. 1. Temporally gated imaging for investigation of atomizing sprays

    Author : Mattias Rahm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ballistic imaging; Imaging through turbid media; Sprays; Velocimetry; Time-gated sectioning.; Optical Kerr effect; Ultrafast lasers;

    Abstract : Fuel sprays play an important role in the combustion process of modern compression ignition engines, but their dynamics are not well understood. This thesis focuses on time-gated imaging techniques as a means to study the optically dense spray formation region of these atomizing sprays. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterisation and application of a laser-based hard x-ray source

    Author : Matthias Grätz; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; X-ray spectroscopy; radiography; medical imaging; differential imaging; time-gated imaging; scatter reduction; Monte Carlo simulation; Atomic and molecular physics; computed tomography; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Grätz; laser-produced plasma; Atom- och molekylärfysik; X-ray sources;

    Abstract : Hard X-rays are generated by focusing 110 fs laser pulses with intensities of about 1017 W·cm-2 onto solid metal targets. Characteristic properties of this X-ray source are the small source size, the short pulse duration and the high peak flux. READ MORE

  3. 3. Advances in Time-gated Ballistic Imaging for Studies of Atomizing Fuel Sprays

    Author : Mattias Rahm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ultrafast lasers; Ballistic imaging; Atomizing sprays; Fuel sprays; OKE-effect;

    Abstract : The transportation sector of today relies heavily on fossil fuels. This is undesirable both due to the finite nature of the fossil resources and to the effects of global warming. Therefore, there is a need to find alternative fuels and simultaneously develop combustion engines with higher efficiencies. READ MORE

  4. 4. Measurement and evaluation of near-field spray kinematics for nozzles with asymmetrical inlet geometries

    Author : Mohammad Nikouei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nozzle Geometry; Spray Dynamics; Spray Velocity; Diesel Spray; Ballistic Imaging;

    Abstract : In diesel engines, fuel injection parameters have a commanding effect on mixing and combustion quality. This research aims to enhance the fundamental knowledge of fuel sprays and their primary break-up. In addition, this research provides statistical data to validate simulation models and improve the prediction accuracy in mixing and combustion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Blue Laser Source for Laser-Induced Fluorescence

    Author : Jesper Holm; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Second Harmonic Generation; Lasers; PPKTP; ALA; Tapered laser diodes; External cavity lasers; Laser-induced fluorescence; photodynamic therapy; mTHPC;

    Abstract : Laser-induced fluorescence is a clinical diagnostic tool, used for tumor demarcation and detection. The technique relies on the injection or topical application of a light sensitive drug called a photosensitizer. This substance has the ability to be accumulated to higher concentrations in cancer cells than in normal cells. READ MORE
