Combustion Applications of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Abstract

The laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technique has the capability to perform multielemental, remote, online, in situ analysis with no/minimum sample preparations. LIBS has created a great deal of interest in combustion diagnostic research. In this chapter, LIBS capabilities in combustion diagnostics and monitoring engine and flame characteristics are investigated. © 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
