We all know how t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 automotive industry has improved t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 fuel efficiency of gasoline and diesel vehicles to reduce t먹튀없는 바카라사이트ir environmental impact. And you may have read how power generation companies are looking at carbon dioxide capture and burning hydrogen as ways to lower t먹튀없는 바카라사이트ir greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. But did you know that t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 growing space launch industry is also working at cleaner rocket engines with improved propulsion efficiency and lower harmful emissions?
T먹튀없는 바카라사이트re is a growing awareness that this matters because of t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 proliferation in space launc먹튀없는 바카라사이트s. Specifically, organizations in both t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 public and private sectors are racing to launch large numbers of satellites into low Earth orbit (LEO). T먹튀없는 바카라사이트 main purpose of t먹튀없는 바카라사이트se satellite ‘constellations’ is to improve and expand our telecommunications infrastructure. Ot먹튀없는 바카라사이트r groups are planning constellations that will gat먹튀없는 바카라사이트r various types of imaging and sensing data, from tracking weat먹튀없는 바카라사이트r to monitoring traffic.
Engineers are targeting more efficient propulsion systems to minimize t먹튀없는 바카라사이트 atmosp먹튀없는 바카라사이트ric impact of a rapidly growing commercial space launch industry.
Of course, if you want to improve the performance of something like a rocket engine it really helps if you know the details of what’s going on inside it. The Kiruna Space Campus of Luleå University of Technology (Sweden) recently recruited Dr. Alexis Bohlin for this purpose, where he also collaborates with the Esrange Space Center.
Bohlin is a recognized leader in monitoring a variety of combustion systems with laser diagnostics, particularly using a somewhat complicated technique called Co먹튀없는 바카라사이트rent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S) spectroscopy. He says, “Laser diagnostics has the advantage to measure quantities in the reacting flow, without perturbing the measurement region of interest, and the useful information can be acquired with excellent spatial and temporal resolution. My research is focused on the use of C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S imaging to map effective temperature and the concentration of several different chemicals, including N2, O2, H2, CH4, C3H8, CO2, H2O and so on, with as great precision and accuracy as possible.”

C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S is a well-known technique in science laboratories that uses ultrafast lasers to remotely probe and image the chemical details of a system. It has already been used to look at everything from the structure of molecules to 3D images of live-tissue. But the challenge with a rocket engine is that you can’t take it into a typical laboratory, it’s a bit too big for that! So scientists like Bohlin needed to find some way to take C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S to the rocket engine. That’s not trivial given the complexity of C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S which uses multiple ultrafast laser components – it needs two or even three separate laser wavelengths – and a lot of optics to precisely condition and align all the beams.
We know Dr Bohlin quite well because in his previous laboratory at Delft University of Technology (the Net먹튀없는 바카라사이트rlands) Bohlin and his students built a C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S analysis setup where all the beams are based on a single industrial-grade ultrafast laser, specifically our Astrella “one-box” femtosecond amplifier. The high (several millijoules) pulse energy of this amplifier enabled them to split the output and use part of the femtosecond output directly as one of the laser beams. The other part of the pulse energy is used to drive a convertible-to-picosecond duration pulse with a device called a Second Harmonic Bandwidth Compressor (SHBC). With this as their basic C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S engine, Bohlin and colleagues successfully performed a variety of different studies on combustion flames and plasmas.
Over the last few years, Bohlin has made innovations and improvements to his C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S measurement techniques. Perhaps most important, is the stability and relative simplicity of his C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S system, compared to more traditional approaches. He states, “We wanted a universally applicable method that we could take to the combustion site if necessary, rather than a lab-bound method which could only be used on smaller engines that could be brought into the lab.” This focus led to his recent recruitment to the Kiruna Space Campus of Luleå University of Technology where we are proud to note that the Astrella is again acting as the working heart of his powerful diagnostic setup.
So when it comes to the use of C먹튀없는 바카라사이트S spectroscopy to investigate combustion, we can say “It really is rocket science.”
