Loughborough University - Gas Analyser

Location

Description

The equipment is a stack of high-speed emissions gas analysers. The flame ionisation detector (FID) for hydrocarbons, chemiluminescence detector (CLD) for NO,NO2, and non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) and CO CO2 have a fast (sub 20 millisecond) response time and are combined in a single heated manifold with calibrated cross interferences for combustion applications meeting industry certified standards. The fast response rate enables area resolved fast traverses in high temperature short time scale combustion facilities, and time resolved measurement of combustion transients, essential for technology development related to future defence platforms.

Legal Justification

This equipment is unique in its high-speed response (FID & NDIR & CLD) which enables fast traverses for area resolved measurements of HC, CO, CO2, NO, NO2 in high temperature short timescale environments, enabling calculation of fuel distribution and temperature distribution within a gas turbine flame. The fast response rate minimises the duration of an emissions map to be completed, which is essential due to the limited supply of compressed air in a blow-down flow facility. The fast response time minimises the time the probe spends within the extreme temperature of a gas turbine flame, which prevents the probes melting or failing. The fast response enables time resolved measurements of transients and dynamics within the flame. This is the only system available that meets the temporal and therefore spatial resolution required for the facility.
