Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

The introduction of fibrous aspherical biomasses for the substitution of coal as a sustainable solid fuel causes complex particle-turbulence interactions, which need to be captured using minimally invasive laser-based diagnostics. High-resolution two-phase particle image velocimetry (PIV) of high-velocity biomass-laden turbulent flows require laser inter-pulse times of only a few microseconds, which is usually achieved with separate laser systems for low-speed statistical and time-resolved measurements. In this work, we introduce a novel approach to achieve low-speed dual-pulse and ultra-high-speed time-resolved two-phase PIV using a single laser system. The flexible repetition rate laser output is realized by coupling a continuously pulsing fiber laser to an acousto-optic deflector (AOD) for pulse picking. The selective deflection of two adjacent laser pulses into the measurement volume is presented at a camera repetition rate of 25 Hz and laser repetition rate of 312.5 kHz resulting in an inter-pulse time of 3.2 µs. Temporal limitations of the AOD pulse picking system are evaluated beyond the access time limit for partially overlapping pulse pairs. To demonstrate the feasibility of the diagnostic system, low-speed measurements and additional ultra-high-speed measurements at 200 kHz are performed at high spatial resolutions to resolve individual biomass particles and their surrounding flow field in a non-reacting turbulent round jet. Simultaneous diffuse back-illumination measurements using a pulsed LED for particle size measurements of a high-aspect-ratio biomass (miscanthus) are conducted. The diagnostic system offers the capability of determining the slip velocity field and projected particle size, enabling a direct measurement of the local particle Reynolds number under high-velocity turbulent conditions at low and ultra-high repetition rates.
