The invention discloses a 2
micrometer-waveband
laser ignition device and method, and belongs to the technical field of
laser. The ignition method comprises two stages, and at the first stage, a Ho:YAG
laser of the waveband through self help, and fuel is preheated; at the second stage, a stable and high-energy 1064 nm laser is adopted for ignition. A preheating device comprises a heating part anda detecting part. According to the detecting part, a high-brightness
LED lamp, a convex lens, a concave lens, a diaphragm and a
plane mirror are used for setting up an imaging
system, by means of an experimental
combustion sealed chamber and a high-speed
CMOS, the
heat distribution condition of vapor at the preheating stage is recorded through a schlieren method, and the temperature of fuel is monitored through an
infrared thermometer. According to the heating part, the Ho:YAG laser is firstly used for focusing two
laser beams at the output end through the concave lens and the convex lens, fuel is preheated on the
waist thinning portion, and after the
monitoring temperature is reached, ignition is carried out through the high-power Nd:YAG of 1064 nm. The success rate of ignition is greatlyincreased, meanwhile, the
minimum ignition energy is reduced, and engine ignition at a lean-burn state is achieved.
