Currently, the solution for the problem of temperature measurement of the gas phase of
combustion products inside the combustion chambers of gas turbine engines is still in …

Nanothermite reactions are mechanistically not well understood, due to their ultra-fast
transient nature, and the complexity of probing both the vapor-phase and condensed-state …

Exothermic surface reaction between fluorine from a fluorine-containing polymer and the
alumina (Al 2 O 3) monolayer shell surrounding aluminum (Al) fuel particles promotes …

Temperature measurements are important for thermal-structural experiments in the thermal
radiation heating environments such as used for thermal-structural stress analyses. This …

Temperature measurements inside semi-transparent materials are important in many fields.
This study investigates the measurements of interior temperature distributions in a one …

A high-speed (2 kHz) near-infrared (1.0–1.65 μ m) multispectral pyrometer was used for
noninvasive measurements of the subpixel temperature distribution near the sharp leading …

The spectral stray light is a major, non-negligible error source affecting spectral intensity
measurements for optical instruments. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects …

Semitransparent zinc sulfide (ZnS) crystal materials are widely used as the infrared-
