title: [Combustion temperature measurement of solid propellant by remote sensing FTIR].
abstract: The combustion temperature of solid propellant was measured in this paper. Emission spectra of the combustion flame were collected with remote sensing FTIR at the resolution of 4 cm(-1). The combustion temperatures with the burning time were calculated from the maximum spectral line intensity and the molecular rotation-vibration spectra of HF molecule, respectively. Combustion temperatures at each time were all 1 788.8 K from the maximum spectral line intensity method. For comparison, the temperatures calculated from the molecular rotation-vibration spectra were 1 859.7, 1 848. 3, 1 804.0 and 1 782.7 K, respectively. Results show that the two methods are all dependable in measuring combustion temperature of solid propellant. But the maximum spectral line intensity method is more convenient and rapid than the other when the combustion is relatively stable.
