title: Single-pulse, laser-saturated fluorescence measurements of OH in turbulent nonpremixed flames.
abstract: A single-pulse, laser-saturated fluorescence technique has been developed for absolute OH concentration measurements with a temporal resolution of 2 nsec, a spatial resolution of <0.1 mm(3), and an estimated accuracy of +/-30%. It has been applied in laminar, transitional, and turbulent hydrogen-air diffusion flames, providing the first reported quantitative measurements of average values, rms fluctuations, and probability density functions of OH radical concentration in nonpremixed flames.
