Much has been said and written about the abilities of modern
instrumentation to help solve problems of combustion in engines. In
the main, however, the design and fabr ication of combustion
chambers continues to be based on extrapolation of exper ience
gained from use and rig tests, with little input from advanced
techniques such as those based on optical diagnotics. At the same
time, it has become increasingly difficult to design better
combustion chambers without knowledge of the relevant flow
processes. Thus, the future must involve improved understanding
which, in turn, will require detailed measurements of velocity,
temperature and concentration. The need to narrow the gap between
current industrial practice and the acquisition and implementation
of improved techniques motivated the organization of the Advanced
Study Institute upon which this volume is based. This Institute on
Instrumentation for Combustion and Flow in Engines was arranged to
display the needs of industry and the possibilities made available
by modern instrumentation and, at the same time, to make clear the
relative advantages of optical and probe techniques. Held at
Vimeiro during the period from 13 to 26 September, 1987, the
Institute was attended by 120 participants and 16 invited
lecturers.
