The invention discloses an optical
rapid compression machine combustion cylinder capable of realizing shooting by a schlieren method. A
combustion chamber cavity penetrates through the front end faceand the rear end face of a
combustion cylinder body; the front end and the rear end of the
combustion chamber cavity are respectively provided with window locating cavities; the left end face of the combustion cylinder body is provided with a
cylinder pressure sensor mounting hole and a vent hole, the upper surface of the combustion cylinder body is provided with a sparking plug mounting hole andan air inlet, and the right end face of the combustion cylinder body is provided with a combustion cylinder locating cavity; a rectangular channel, a tapered transition section, and a compression section are sequentially arranged between the combustion cylinder locating cavity and the
combustion chamber body from left to right; the front end and the rear end of the
combustion chamber body are provided with
silica glass, and the
silica glass is fixed through glass baffles; a combustion chamber is reserved between the two pieces of
silica glass; the combustion chamber communicates with the
cylinder pressure sensor mounting hole, the vent hole, the rectangular channel, and the sparking plug mounting hole, and the rectangular channel communicates with the air inlet. The optical
rapid compression machine combustion cylinder capable of realizing shooting by the schlieren method mainly changes the direction of the combustion chamber axis, so that the combustion chamber axis is perpendicular to the movement direction of a
piston, and the requirements of the optical arrangement of the schlieren method are met.
