Abstract

Two laser-based techniques, Optoacoustic Laserbeam Deflection (OLD) and Frequency Modulation (FM) spectroscopy, were introduced for flame diagnostics. Flame temperature was measured by OLD with 1.5% precision and flame temperature profiles were taken. Ground state and excited state sodium within an aspirated flame were detected by FM-spectroscopy. Present limits of sensitivity are absorptions of 1.5·10^–4and ground state sodium densities of 3.3·10⁶ cm^–3.
