Combustion gas emissions spectra of Otto cycle engine operating on H₂, CO, and gasoline using a calibrated vidicon detector spectrometer

Creator:

Freeburn, Scott Alan

Abstract:

The capabilities of the Tektronix Model J2C/7J20 Rapid Scanning Spectrometer for the determination of molecular species resulting from Otto cycle combustion were experimentally investigated after a literature search of the subject area. Combustion of hydrogen-air, carbon monoxideair, and gasoline-air mixtures in the combustion chamber of a Cooperative Fuel Research engine...

A three-phase argon plasma arc for analytical emission spectroscopy

Creator:

Mattoon, Terence Richard

Abstract:

A new three-phase argon plasma arc was developed for analytical emission spectroscopy. The power supplied to the plasma arc utilized a simple circuit with three-phase as line voltage stepped down via a transformer to 104Vrms. A three concentric quartz tubing assembly was determined to be the optimum configuration for supplying...
