Abstract
We report a tomographic absorption spectroscopy (TAS) study of water vapor transport in a laminar jet issuing into the ambient. The jet was generated using compressed dry air that was straightened by a honeycomb and a smooth contraction nozzle. A TAS scheme using the water vapor in the ambient as absorbing species and the absorption line near 1368.598 nm was proposed to study the H2O transport in the laminar jet with an inverse concentration gradient. One-dimensional tomography was conducted at various heights above the nozzle, and the results were validated by the predictions from computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Particularly, the variations in the concentration gradient in the shear layer at different heights were captured. The 2D distribution of water concentration in the dry laminar jet was obtained experimentally. The present study shows that TAS has great potential in the research of mass transfer and scalar field of gaseous flows.
