Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of aircraft component configuration and power plant design and measuring instrument design and development, and in particular to a combined testing device for a low-altitude flying ignition optical engine. Background Art

[0002] The growing number of cars has led to a sharp increase in fossil fuel consumption and a widespread problem in major cities. To alleviate resource constraints and urban traffic congestion, researchers have conducted extensive research on new fuel-powered vehicles and manned flying vehicles. However, current research has largely focused on electric flying vehicles. While electric energy can alleviate the increasing consumption of petroleum energy, it is currently primarily derived from thermal power generation, which still consumes non-renewable fossil resources. Therefore, exploring new fuel engines suitable for low-altitude flight as a power plant is an effective way to address the massive consumption of fossil fuels and traffic congestion. However, current research on power plants has largely focused on traditional fuels. Therefore, developing a power plant suitable for low-altitude flight requires optical visualization of the in-cylinder combustion characteristics and overall pollutant generation characteristics of new fuel engines. Currently, commonly used optical testing techniques include high-speed photography, high-speed schlieren, laser-induced fluorescence, and laser-induced incandescence. However, these testing techniques primarily focus on macroscopic and qualitative measurements of the target area. Therefore, it is of great breakthrough significance to develop a joint test device for low-altitude flight spark-ignition optical engine Raman scattering concentration measurement and coherent Stokes Raman scattering temperature measurement for accurate quantitative measurement of the concentration and temperature of the combustion field and crankcase components of low-altitude flight power units.

After the two beams of pulsed laser are synchronously incident on the area to be measured, they are used to excite the combustion field in the area to be measured to generate coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering signals.

[0021] In this embodiment, the first spectrometer 5 and the second spectrometer 6 are 1200 transmission grating spectrometers with high acquisition accuracy and high resolution, and are respectively used in conjunction with the first ICCD 7 and the second ICCD 8 to collect spontaneous Raman scattering signals and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering signals of the area to be measured.

[0022] In this embodiment, the DG 645 digital delay generator 9 has 8 channels, which can adjust the timing and amplitude of the digital signal, and is used to synchronize the timing of the ignition optical engine for low-altitude flight, the first Nd:YAG laser 2, the second Nd:YAG laser 3, the dye laser 4, the first ICCD 7, and the second ICCD 8, thereby realizing real-time synchronous measurement of the concentration and temperature of the components in the cylinder at different time phases of the engine.

[0023] In this embodiment, an ignition optical engine 1 suitable for low-altitude flight is fixed to the ground by anchor bolts.
