Optical Fiber Imaging Based Tomographic Reconstruction of Burner Flames

This paper presents the design, implementation, and

for the 3-D visualization and characterization of a burner

device cameras are used to acquire flame images simultaneously

fiber bundle has 30k picture elements and an objective lens with

fiber bundles and the calibration of the system were conducted

that combines the logical filtered back-projection and the

reconstruct the flame sections from the images. A direct comparison

is conducted through computer simulation for different

of the cross- and longitudinal-sections of a burner flame from

performed. The effectiveness of the imaging system and computer

algorithm is assessed through experimental tests.
